I think.300 Savage was more equivalent to the 30-30.

Actually, the .300 Savage is MUCH more powerful than the.30-30 WCF in every standard load & at any distance.

The .300 SAV only SLIGHTLY inferior in power to the 7.62x51NATO (AKA: .308WCF), according to the former chief engineer at Springfield Arsenal. = His office admitted (about a decade ago) that the reason that the USA did NOT just use the .300 SAV unchanged was that they did not wish to pay royalties to the original designer.

Yours, ex-cadet
