Has anyone loaded a Nosler Accubond 308 cal 150 gr Spitzer in a 30/30?
I know you can only shoot 1 or 2 at a time. Would need the OAL. This is for
a winchester 94.

Only reason for doing this is lack of bullets and powder.

I've put spitzers in my 94 and my Marlin 30-30 with good results. Even if you have to seat them deeper they usually give good accuracy--in my limited experience.

And BTW: who needs more than two shots, anyway?

I shoot the Hornady lipstick jwords in my marlin. They shoot great.

As mentioned regarding seating them deep have had no problem. Years ago I shot a box or two of Speer 130gr. HP's in 30-30 that were tack drivers, cant remember the load however. Also shot some 125 SP's that were nearly tack drivers as well.
