After having trouble finding a bullet that would stabilize in my .308
shooting reduced loads , I had success with this one. Although
@ 1425fps there is no expansion but I didn't expect it to. Shoots great for my
13 year old daughter low noise and recoil.

Cool. I'm a big fan of that little bullet. Though I'm usually running it at 3,000+ fps.

Have you considered any of the short/light bullets designed for the .30-30?

Sierra makes a 125 I believe, real stubby, with a flat tip.

Speer makes a 130, similar shape.

I also used .30 cal carbine bullets @110gr SP
with 11gr TB was a bit over 1500 fps also very accurate.
She can shoot both no problem, I am working her up slowly
 
The 110 hornady vmax has shot really well for me over trailboss in several 308 Cal guns.
It might even be a great game bullet at that speed.....the jackets aren't that thin on them.
 
Very cool! Talk about versatile. A lb of Trailboss would just about go forever with those sorta loads. Probably be a whole lot of fun too..
