Speer 150 and 170 30 cal flat points

[Muddly]

Never had luck with Speer bullets. Just never got the accuracy I got with Sierras and Hornadys.
Well, my M99 .30-30 loves them. Very accurate and consistent, so I think I might give them a try for deer and bear. The 150s for deer and the 170s for bear.
Anybody use them? Curious how they compare to other .30-30 specific bullets. The 150s are doing 2400 fps and the 170s 2280 fps.
Thanks

Muddly,

I have been using the Speer 150 gr bullets in my 30-30s for decades. I use them in my Win 94s with good accuracy from every one I've shot this bullet out of.
Usually I load them over 34.5grs of Win 748. That has been the most consist ant powder I've ever used in the 30-30s.
Unfortunately I've never taken a game animal with them, so I can't comment on that end of it.

Speer150's out of my .30-30AI Model 99 are amazingly accurate. Only used it on deer once but that one dropped in its' tracks.

Shot alot of deer with the 150 Speer.
Excellent performance, reliable expansion.
