I actually never tried H335 in the 30-30 but I did use 4895, IMR4064 and a lot of IMR3031. While I use to load most of my 30-30 ammo with IMR3031 once I tried Leverevolution it became my only 30-30 powder.

Hornady uses different formulations of Leverevolution powder specifically mixed for each caliber. The Leverevolution powder being marketed by Hodgdon is the powder formulation used in the 30-30. I can report higher velocities with it, it's very clean burning and produces accurate ammo. I'm using it with the Hornady FTX bullets, traditional Hornady and Sierra 150gr and 170gr 30-30 bullets and with 165gr Hard Cast bullets too. It's very rare I turn away from a powder I used for a long time but this one is a keeper...
