This load is the best I have found. I have killed 8 deer with it and all of them have fell within 60 yards. The farthest shot I've made was 200 yards at a doe with my Marlin 30-30. I've never had one jam and they have always passed through the deer and left a huge wound channel. This round is flawless. They have never failed to fire either, rain, snow, and sun they preform.

These babies are awesome ! I will never shoot another type of ammo through my .35 Marlin again. At first my .35 kept jamming when I would cycle through a few rounds like when you unload a lever action. So I contacted Marlin and they told me to send it to them. I did and it never jammed again, free of charge too. I've been impressed with these rounds at the range and last deer season they impressed me in the field. One shot dropped him in his tracks.

Upon using, or I should say trying to use, these cartridges they repeatedly jammed in my Uberti Model 1873 45LC Lever Action. The plastic tips are too long and always hang-up in the chamber. I would not recommend these cartridges to anyone planning on using them in a similar Uberti model.

Rated 2 out of 5 by dummie84 bad for winchester 94
cant hit the paper with a pre 1955 or 50 winchester 94. balistic trajectory dosent follow the iron sights for regular 30-30 shells. need one of them forgin made lever guns or a marlin to shoot this that can mount a scope unles you want to have to kentuckey windage every shot cannot make a 100 yd or any yard zero with factory winchester sights. has flatter trajectory and biger cloud of dirt from the bank than a 170 power point but need a lever gun that can mount a scope. makes beter touch screen cell phone stylus than pre 1955 winchester 94 ammunition. would be nice if hornady made to match default balistics instead of excede and make worth less to some of us.
would only reccoment to a friend if they have a scoped lever gun. purchased at my local bass pro.

I use these .357 Mag in my Ruger 77/357 & they load & shoot great. I see no reason they would not function in my S&W .357 Mag.revolver, but I just wanted to ask if there could be any problem. Anyone use them in a revolver?
(read all my Q&A)

A:
YES. WITH A GOOD SCOPE, IT MAKES AGREAT HUNTING WEAPON..
A:
I use 357 ammunition in my Ruger security six revolver. However, avoid wadcutter ammunition with a 357 powder load. Your barrel will lead up really bad. Stay with the standard ball ammunition.

A:
This is just from an observer's POV, but I've seen the same rounds used in a revolver with less than favorable results. They were claiming that the powder used in the rifle cartridges is slower and more ideal for long barrels, but don't have any personal experience with them. As far as fit and function, you won't have any problems with them firing.Answers
A:
If it fits the magazine it should work good.

I HAVE A 44 MAG RIFLE What type shell to ineed to hunt with . Is there a differance in hand gun ammo and rifle?Answers
Top 1000 Contributor
A:
Handgun ammunition has a faster propellant vs the rifle and you may see a difference at longer ranges in trajectory, ultimately effecting the accuracy of the round.A:

i need a good ammo for whitetail ive heard good about LEVERevolution what are the advantages and disadvantages of this ammoAnswers
A:
Yes, I shoot this out of a marlin model 336 lever action rifle that is older than I am. You will be pleased.A:
never used it in my 30-30 but in my .35 remington it is great. improved stopping power and range. should work great for deer.A:
I used this ammo last weekend to sight in my marlin 30-30, we were using a 1/4 steel rod to hold our target out at 100 yards. I hit the rod and it curled almost all the way around. This is a very hard hitting round and will be using from now on.A:
I now use this in my Marlin 336 .30-30 and like it. You would need to spend some range time to determine if it is accurate in your rifle just to be sure. If you've been using standard round or flat tip ammo this prints a bit higher so adjust your sights for that. The polymer tips are soft so they do not cause a problem in tubular magazines and shoot fairly flat. They also perform great on deer with very good expansion.
A:
REMINGTON CORE LOCKS 175 GRAIN.A:
no, because of the tip of ammo being so pointed.Details:
can i find any other bullets for a marlin 308 express? i will be hunting everyting from coyotes to moose to bear. and i know the plastic tip bullets wont hold up to those animas. is there any other brand that makes bullets for a marlin 308 express?Answers
Top 1000 Contributor
A:
Remington's 150gr Core Lokt is an alternative, but the FTX rounds by Hornady have been proven to be excellent one shot stoppers even on big game.A:
Where did you heasr that?I'd call some bullet manufactures and get a specific answer from them.
A:
Since this is Hornady ammunition, why don't you contact Hornady and ask them? Different bullets will require you to reload your own rounds, but Hornady can help you with all the info you need, such as overall length of the round, and where and how to seat the different bullets.A:
Don't understimate those polymer tipped bullets, they will do just fine on moose and bear .
Top 1000 Contributor
A:
The ballistic tip ammunition is specifically designed for hunting. The tip allows the bullet to achieve maximum velocity, and upon impact, is destroyed and the benefit of the hollow core kicks in creating lots of internal damage. The end result with ballistic tip ammo is, you acheive maximum FPS, and also maximum expansion. It will be fine for larger game. Not sure how that round is going to do for coyotes, as my experiance with coyotes is usually a long range shot. A .308 express isn't exactly a tac driver at range. My recommendation if you were going to varmint hunt is to pick up a bolt action .17 HMR, or a 22 Mag and get some Hornady V-Max ammo. They make squirrels explode, it's pretty cool.Details:
I shoot a 7mm mag. but got a new gun for b-day(henery .357 big boy). want to know which one I should bring for hunting this year? help pleaseAnswers
A:
The 357 is a great round at closer distances and great in thick brush. But for Elk Hunting I'd take the 7 mag, it's an amazing round. In 165 grain and i suggest Hornady Custom bullets, they are usually a few dollars more but well worth it , and the 7 mag is more than enough power for that elk just put a good shot on him.A:
357 is NOT a proper round for Elk. Will work for deer as I have put 3 in the freezer with a 357 BUT my 357 were hand loads and quite a bit more powerful than what you can get off of the shelf. I would not even want to try and see if they would work for Elk, not unless you handload and even then I think I would use a more powerful load and a load that will make a clean kill for sure. Better to make sure than just hit one and let it get away to die later and be harvested by coyotes.A:
If it were me, I'd stick with the 7mm.A:
I would stick with the 7mm mag for Elk. Much more effective at a distance and has more knock down at that distance. Good luck.Details:
