3031 was a pretty good match for 30/30 130 grain flat points. I chose a load half way between minimum and maximum and was happy with the velocity and recoil. The flat tip bullets expanded pretty good at the higher 30/40 velocity. It would have been good for southern white tail and coyotes. A little light for pigs, some of them ran a pretty fair distance.
For 180 grain and up go with the forum wisdom and experience.
