Doing a little more research came up with this answer;

The .30 Remington is effectivly a rimless .30-30. Chambered for the
Remington mdl 8 and 81.

I don't know the situation in the US, but here in Canada, guys are always looking for .30 Rem ammo, since the cartridge manufacturers quit making the stuff.

I'd have thought they'd start up again since they now make ammo for the new 6.8 military cartridge, and it has the same base as the .30, .32 and .25 Rem cartridges.
