any thoughts on this one as to bullet selection for eastren w/ tails, close range? was thinking 130/150 sierra, no more than 50/60 yards. have used 44/ 357 at these ranges w/ 100% sucess, but have no experience w/ this one.

check on 150 grain flat nose design bullets made for 30-30 use. these should be a little lighter jacket & softer core because they are designed to expand at approx. the velocity you will be shooting. the flat point also should add some initial shock/knock down. flat point bullets won't do as well at long range, but you state use at reasonable ranges at which they should do well.
working up a load is part of the fun, good luck & safe shooting.
