The 30-30 shoots a .308" diameter bullet with a weight between 100 and 220 grains depending on the load. Normal factory loads are 150 grain or 170 grain.
the .270 Winchesterr uses a 30-06 size case necked down to the .277" diameter. The .277" diameter bullets come in a weight of 90 to 150 grains. THe key difference is the .270 Winchester has a fairly flat tragectory out to 300 yards where the 30-30 has an effective range of only 250 yards max.
