DaManI would recommend Bullseye first or Unique second......But, if you can't get those in Sweden, try some fairly fast Norma or Vihta pistol powders.

<J�rgen>Hi Danny , I`d recommend 12-16gr. N110 as a start in a 30/30 case with your bullet weight.
Another option (that I never tried ion a 30/30) will be N310 , yes , the fastest powder they make, try between 2-3gr.and work up slowly !Don`t worry about loading density , this stuff ignites so easily that you will be amazed.I tried it in my 300 Whisper with 190gr. bullets , was really quiet and still had enough punch to go deep into a tree stump , good luck !

Cal SibleyI would suggest you go to the VihtaVouri or Lapua web site and send them an EMAIL requesting their loading booklet. They send these out rather quickly, and they are free. Best wishes.

I asked Norma for a couple of years ago with no answer. I beleive they have dropped production of 3030 cartridges ,even stil there are some on the market.
