With both sighted to hit point of aim at a hundred yards, the Model 94’s .30 caliber bullet drops only about nine inches at 200 yards. The .45-70 loses almost twenty-five inches whilst retained energy is only a few foot-pounds more than that of the smaller round. That much difference in hold-over is very significant. The difference in energy is not. For this and many other reasons, soon after its introduction, the .30-30 Winchester in the slab-sided lever action Model 94 became synonymous with the word "rifle".
