[QUOTE="Mitch Rapp, post: 906106, member: 332"] If you already have other "deer rifles" then I say go with the 45-70. If not, and you need a good, all around gun, then the 30-30 is terrific for short to mid range hunting. The 45-70 is terrific as well, but will limit your range a bit more than the 30-30. You can make decent hits with a 30-30 out to almost 300, while the 45-70 is probably best kept under 200. Do you plan to put a scope on it? [/QUOTE]
