    FWIW, I say don't. Steer your friend in the right direction to help him buy his own reloading equipment and learn him how to reload himself. That's more than I ever got.

    I was referencing to the Land Owner quote "CAN use spire pointed boolits in a lever gun" doing THAT for a friend would be lunacy ...............................cuz you just know somewhere down the track - them pointy bullets gonna get loaded ina magazine ...........................he might blow his hand off when the magazine chain fires - maybe it never happens...................

    Normal reloads that you tested properly in his gun should be fine

    Never understood why people want to mess with spitzers in a 30/30 carbine ? the ballistic advantage inside 200yards is marginal - keep em for a scope sighted bolt gun I reckon.
