The .30-30 Winchester / 7.8x51mmR (officially named the .30 Winchester Center Fire or .30 WCF) cartridge was first marketed for the Winchester Model 1894 lever-action rifle in 1895. [4] The .30-30 (pronounced "thirty-thirty"), as it is most commonly known, along with the .25-35 Winchester , was offered that year as the United States' first ...
This is a table of selected pistol/submachine gun and rifle/machine gun cartridges by common name. Data values are the highest found for the cartridge, and might not occur in the same load (e.g. the highest muzzle energy might not be in the same load as the highest muzzle velocity, since the bullet weights can differ between loads).
A typical .30-30 factory load fires a 150-grain bullet at 2390 ft/s, while the current 7-30 factory load fires a 120-grain bullet at 2700 ft/s. Muzzle energy is just over 1900 ft-lbs for both of these loads, but the lighter weight 7 mm bullet has a higher velocity and flatter trajectory.

As it has been understood that propellant burns more efficiently in shorter, wider-diameter casings, [7] modern ammunition has changed over time to become shorter and wider than previous cartridges. The .30 TC (0.308 in (7.8 mm) x 1.920 in (48.8 mm) is a non-magnum that is somewhat shorter and wider than the .308 and .30-06. [ 1 ]
The .30-30 was never a black powder round, though the use of a powder weight was a convetion taken from the era of black powder cartridges such as .45-70 or .50-70. It's doubtful thirty grains of black powder would fit in the small .30-30 case even if compressed. I use a .30-30 in the Black Powder Cartridge matches at the local club.
