Did the measurements this morning with Leverevolution Powder...
Measured to bottom of seated bullet, powder not compressed...
30-30 w/150 grn FP Bullet 38.0 grn
30-30 w/150 grn SST Bullet 39.5 grn (+3.5%)
30-30 Ackley w/ 150 grn SST Bullet 42.0 grn. That's 10.3% more capacity than the FP load and 6.3% more than the SST load.
I've got an SSK 14" Contender in 30-30 Ackley that'll do 2450+ with the 150 grn SST Bullets. Also, a Henry Single Shot 22" Rifle that'll do 2700+ fps with the same loads...
