Jeff, I have never heard of a .22-30-30.  Is that the barrel marking?  I assume it was originally a .22 Hornet?  I have a Hornet barrel re-chambered to .219 Zipper which is a .30-30 case necked down to .22 caliber.  Maybe some of the other readers can help you.  You also might Google .22-30-30 to see what pops up.  Please share your info with us and please send a picture of the barrel markings.  Good luck on your hunt for loading data.  Garnett

I just googled .22-30-30 and P.O. Ackly had an Improved version with a 40 degree shoulder.  It is NOT the same as the .219 Zipper.
