.30-30 Winchester Hornady LeverEvolution Centerfire Rifle Cartridge, 160 Grain Evolution Ballistic Flex Tip Bullet, 2400 fps, 20 Rounds Per Box

2046 ft/lb.s muzzle
2150 fps at 100 yards
1643 ft/lbs. at 100 yards
1916 fps at 200 yards
1304 ft/lbs. at 200 yards

The bullets look like Hornady's SST bullets but are specifically designed for tubular magazine applications. Hornady overcame the dangers of accidental discharge by using a polymer tip pliable enough to mush against the primer but stiff enough not to deform in flight.

20 rounds per box. To buy a full case, order 10 boxes.

LEVERevolution is the most exciting thing to ever happen to lever gun ammunition. Hornady, the leader in ballistic technology, brings you an innovation in ammunition performance featuring state of the industry patented, FTX (Flex Tip eXpanding) bullets that are SAFE in your tubular magazine. Its higher ballistic coefficient delivers dramatically flatter trajectories for fantastic downrange energy increases and amazing bullet expansion at all ranges. It truly is an evolution in lever gun ammunition!

Up to 250 feet per second faster muzzle velocity than conventional lever gun loads.
Exceptional accuracy and overwhelming downrange terminal performance.
Patented FTX bullet featuring Flex Tip Technology.
Up to 40% more energy than traditional flat point loads.

The innovative LEVERevolution bullet design may require a newer magazine follower to provide best possible functioning of the last round out of the magazine. These magazine followers may be purchased from the manufacturer of your firearm. For optimum performance we do not recommend storing LEVERevolution ammunition in tubular magazines for extended periods, as this can result in tip deformation.

Non-returnable item. We will not accept any returns on this item.

4.0 Rating Old Cartridge, New Wonders - 12/28/2008Ammo .30-30 Winchester Hornady LeverEvolution FTX 160 Grain 20 Round Box 2400 fps4.0000
Reviewer: B. Carpenter
I have a Model 94AE that is more of a plinking gun to me than a dedicated hunting rifle. Having read many reviews of this cartridge figured I would give it a try. I have my Model 94 dialed in at 100 yds for 150gr handloads and Federal factory ammo. Best groups average 1 1/2 - 2". Loaded up some leverevolution and could not hit the paper. Figured out I was shooting 7" higher than standard loads. Without redialing scope simply aimed 7" lower and shot 3 round test groups. Unbelievable!! These bullets were producing groups under 1" with my best off a bench rest being just under 1/2". Liked the possibilities of this cartridge so much and coplained to my Fiance about having to resight scope and just plink with my surplus of handloads that she bought me a Marlin 336XLR for X-mas. Gotta love her. Can't wait to get good weather to put this combination to the test. The only reason I gave this ammo a 4 bullet rating is because I have not proven it on game. Everyone else seems to be pleased and I'm sure I will as well. As a reloader I can only hope hornady offers the bullet only to us in the future.

This round makes all the diference... I can now shoot greater distances with greater accuracy and knock down power! I shot a deer at 200 yds dead center to my cross hairs and knocked it off it's feet. Wow, thanks Hornady!

Reviewer: DEER HUNTER
I GOT SOME OF THESE SHELLS AND A PUT A NEW SCOPE ON MY DAD'S MARLIN, ITS AN OLD GUN, AT LEAST ABOUT 30 YEARS OLD. DAD HAS BEEN TURNING DOWN SOME SHOT BECAUSE OF DISTANCE. SO I GOT THESE TO TRY, AND HE HAS KILLED 4 DEER THIS YEAR WITHOUT A PROBLEM, AND ONE OF THEM WAS ABOUT 150 YARDS AWAY. ONE SHOT, ONE KILL. THEY GROUP AWESOME, AND SHOOT SUPER FLAT, THEY ARE THE BEST I'VE SEEN.

Reviewer: Cpt. Caveman
I got a box of these from a friend, I've been shooting Remington 150 since I got my 336aw a few years ago, good rifle, never needed a scope and got used to it with just iron sights. My Elk-hunter friends invited me out to follow along in Colorado. I quit hunting after my New York experience, too many hunters with "Buck Fever" can ruin anything. I planned on plinking and such, but as we made camp one friend spotted a cow on a hill, only one with a rifle handy, I took the shot, about 100 yds paced, she went down the hill. Everyone thought I missed, we went up to the hill and there she was, dead as a doornail. The round missed her ribs and tagged her square in the heart, she ran maybe 6 feet before dropping. I just stood there trying to look like I meant for that to happen. Great round (one in a million shot, never admit that though).
2.0 Rating If it's not broken don't fix it! - 11/12/2008Ammo .30-30 Winchester Hornady LeverEvolution FTX 160 Grain 20 Round Box 2400 fps2.0000
Reviewer: Mossyoak2007
A word to the wise, if you are planing on using this particular ammunition in an older model .30 caliber rifle, shoot and shoot often. These from my own experience are very erratic. My Winchester 74 will shoot almost anything you put in it except these shells. It tends to sling to bullets out of the barrel. I've purchased a box this year, and had to go back to the 150 gr. Winchester load. They seem to work great in the newer Marlin models but as for the older style .30 caliber, be cautious when changing shells. Like the old saying if it ain't broke don't fix it.
