Gun Descriptions

About The .30-30 Winchester Ammo, also known as the .30 Winchester Center Fire Ammo, was first designed and marketed commercially in 1895 in the United States. The .30-30 Winchester Ammo was designed for smokeless powder for the first small-bore sporting rifles. After approximately sixty years of production, the .243 Winchester Ammo surpassed the .30-30 Winchester Ammo in the small-bore cartridge category, but the .30-30 Winchester Ammo remains widely in use even today. Even though the .30-30 Winchester Ammo isn't recommended for long-range shots, it has a soft recoil that allows for accurate shots to be taken in short to mid ranges. However, the .243 Winchester Ammo provides a stronger power and muzzle energy than the .30-30 Winchester Ammo while delivering the same mild recoil to the shooter. The .30-30 Winchester Ammo has an overall length of 64.8mm, and the bullet diameter of this bullet is 7.8mm. The 150-grain bullet variant of the .30-30 Winchester Ammo can travel at a velocity of 2,390 feet per second while creating an energy level of 1,903 ft.lbf.  Manufacturer The .30-30 Winchester Ammo was designed and manufactured by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company in 1895 in the US.  Uses In Canada and the US, hunters have successfully used the .30-30 Winchester ammo for hunting moose, caribou, and pronghorn. The cartridge has also been used for hunting down the deer family. 

444 Marlin Ammo About The .444 Marlin Ammo designed in 1964 is a rifle cartridge and was created with the intention to fill the gap left by the older .45-70. The .444 Marlin Ammo cartridge design is based on the .44 Magnum Ammo. In the mid of the 1960s, the .45-70 Ammo had disappeared from the market, and there was no big bore bullet available to fill the chambers of a level action rifle. That's when the need for this bullet arose and thus was introduced. The 240-grain variant of the .444 Marlin Ammo wasn't very successful, but this cartridge quickly gained popularity as heavier variants of the .444 Marlin Ammo were made available for purchase. The .444 Marlin Ammo has an overall length of 65mm and a bullet diameter of 10.9mm. The heaviest variant of the .444 Marlin Ammo is loaded with 300-grain, which can travel at the velocity of 2,000 feet per second while producing an energy level of 2,665 ft.lbf. Manufacturer The .444 Marlin Ammo was created in 1964 when the market needed a big bore cartridge for level-action rifles. It was designed and manufactured by Marlin, Remington Arms. Uses The .444 Marlin Ammo has an extremely long effective range for hunting medium to large-sized games. The bullet can take out games like bear, deer, elk, and moose at a distance of 200 to 250 yards with precise accuracy.
