Just got a 30-8mm from a friend and was wondering what loads are out there that incorporate H1000 or 4831sc. I would like to use VLD 190-210s or 208 A-Max. Thanks.

Rem 700 action with 28" Obermeyer AMU contour.
 
Sorry, I can't help you with any 30-8mm loads using H1000 or 4831sc. However, I have successfully used a 30-8mm in 1000 yd IBS competition using R22.
Here is what I used:
30" Hart Barrel
Mark X Action
220 Sierra HPBT
74.2 gr R22
CCI Large BR Primers
Remington Cases
2,945 fps
 
Hello,
I thought I was alone with this one! Awesome wildcat caliber. I wanted more than a 300 Weatherby and 30-378 Wby wont safely work with a Remington action. I have been shooting one for Elk for over 15 years. I have a binder full of load data. Mine is built on a Remington 700 also with a lilja 27" stainless fluted barrel. It shoots 3/4 to one inch at 300 yards. I have to much info to post here. email me and I will forward you all I have.
 
What you are describing is basically a 300 Jarret 8mm mag necked down to 30 cal blown out and 30 degree shoulder. I short 87.5 grains of RE22 with a Sierra 155.5 grai Palma. Right at 3500fps. Don't know if this helps
 
Thought the Jarrett was a 35 degree.

One of my In-laws had a reamer made about 20 years ago, which was a blown out 30x8MM with a 30 degree shoulder. They shot the smallest group ever out of their shop at 1 mile which was 10" witnessed by a few guys making bets on the accuracy. Not sure if it was 3 or 5, but most likely 5 cause all these guys were top notch BR shooters back in the day.

Don't have any data for ya, but I can ask next time I see them.
