.30-30 Winchester

About The .30-30 Winchester Ammo, also known as the .30 Winchester Center Fire Ammo, was first designed and marketed commercially in 1895 in the United States. The .30-30 Winchester Ammo was designed for smokeless powder for the first small-bore sporting rifles. After approximately sixty years of production, the .243 Winchester Ammo surpassed the .30-30 Winchester Ammo in the small-bore cartridge category, but the .30-30 Winchester Ammo remains widely in use even today. Even though the .30-30 Winchester Ammo isn't recommended for long-range shots, it has a soft recoil that allows for accurate shots to be taken in short to mid ranges. However, the .243 Winchester Ammo provides a stronger power and muzzle energy than the .30-30 Winchester Ammo while delivering the same mild recoil to the shooter. The .30-30 Winchester Ammo has an overall length of 64.8mm, and the bullet diameter of this bullet is 7.8mm. The 150-grain bullet variant of the .30-30 Winchester Ammo can travel at a velocity of 2,390 feet per second while creating an energy level of 1,903 ft.lbf.Â Manufacturer The .30-30 Winchester Ammo was designed and manufactured by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company in 1895 in the US.Â Uses In Canada and the US, hunters have successfully used the .30-30 Winchester ammo for hunting moose, caribou, and pronghorn. The cartridge has also been used for hunting down the deer family.Â

.375 Winchester

The.375 Winchester is a modernized version of the.38-55 Winchester, which was first introduced in 1884 as a black powder cartridge. In 1978, the.375 Winchester cartridge and the Winchester Model 94 "Big Bore" lever-action rifle were launched. It was lauded at the time of its release as a cartridge capable of firing far larger bullets than the.30-30 Win. and in a rifle that weighed only 6.5 pounds. It was designed by U.S gunmaker Charles H Ballard to be a modern take on Winchester's much older ammo variants. Only Winchester produces a.375 loadings, which is advertised as a 200-grain flat nose Powerpoint bullet that shoots at a realistic 2100fps. The Powerpoint bullet breaks 1800fps at just 80 yards from this velocity, beyond which this bullet design struggles to expand. It is feasible to outperform factory loads by up to 100fps when using manual loads. The 375 Winchester produces muzzle velocities that are not as high as some of the more recent additions, including factory and hand loads. It can be a slow killer if shot placement isn't perfect. It's worth noting that the cartridge is designed to extend down to impact velocities of 1600fps. The.375" barrel is very broad, and the cartridge's hefty bullets are capable of producing relatively deep penetration. The.375 is able to deliver consistent results by combining a large bullet diameter with hefty flat pointed bullets. If you are looking to be hunting white-tailed deer in the timber, then the 375 Winchester is a good choice.
