[QUOTE="criticalbass, post: 901210, member: 711"] For deer in brush the 30-30 is great. Short and quick to handle, and enough in the woods. For open country hunting you need more range. For hogs, really big ones can soak up shots in the shoulder from the 30-30 and not die soon enough (sometimes not at all). The 30-30 has its place, but not as an all around one rifle. The 30-06 would be my choice. Infinite choices af ammo, ammo available even in Podunk, and adequate for anything except the big bears in North America. Also, since they are currently sort of out of fashion, they are available for reasonable prices. CB [/QUOTE]
