The Winchester X30303 Super-X in .30-30 Winchester features the legendary Power-Point bullet—a soft point design that’s earned a reputation for consistency, accuracy, and devastating on-target results. This 170-grain load is engineered for whitetail, mule deer, and similar-sized game, offering a classic solution with modern performance enhancements.
The .30-30 Winchester cartridge has long been a staple for American hunters, and Winchester’s Super-X line continues that legacy with dependable manufacturing and high-quality components. Whether you’re using a lever-action rifle in the woods or lining up on a broadside shot across a field, this round offers the terminal performance needed to ethically drop game.
The Power-Point bullet features a notched copper-alloy jacket designed to initiate rapid expansion upon impact. Inside, the exposed soft lead tip mushrooms reliably for deep wound channels and efficient energy transfer. With a muzzle velocity of approximately 2,200 feet per second (fps) and muzzle energy of over 1,827 foot-pounds (ft-lbs), the round performs well within its effective range, typically up to 200 yards.
Each round is housed in a reloadable brass case and uses a non-corrosive boxer primer, making it both cost-effective and practical for the handloader. Packed in 20-round boxes, this ammunition is a solid go-to for traditional hunting rifles.
