Those are the ones I have loaded for mine, my brothers and friends 30-30s.  Good bullets.

ETA: Sorry, the model number 3031 is spire points, I use in .308s.  For the 30-30s, I use the 150gr RN, model 3035.

Those bullets will work fine in the 06,If your 30-30 is a bolt gun or single shot you can use that bullet also,if it's a lever gun you have to use either a round nose,flat point or flex tip bullet.  Pointed bullets in a 30-30 lever gun are bad news,they can set the primer off in the next round ahead of it in a  tubular magazine under recoil and even cause a chair reaction and set all the rounds off at once.

30-30 bullets

NO.

With a 30-30, you must use RN round nose or FN flat nose.

Bullet in link is good for 30-06, it's called a Spire point.

Hint, the hot link button is second from the right on the Insert Tags line.

Use this Hornady bullet in 30-30.

eta, welcome aboard.

Only put 2 in the gun at one tome.

I put one in the chamber and load the second in the magazine, shoot 2 shots and reload.
