Sounds like a kid worth your efforts. I hope I'm still around in 24 years so that I can vote for him when he becomes eligible to run for President.

With respect to the light bullets, there are plenty of .30-30 loads in the pistol sections of manuals that use 110, 125, and 130 grain bullets. Most use faster powders, which will get up to the usual .30-30 pressures and burn pretty cleanly, but because the charges don't fill the cases, they produce lower velocities in rifles than the usual rifle powders.

What powders and manuals do you already have?
