30-30 with flat nose bullets... they drop EVERY deer out there within 100-150 yards....
no questions about it. I've had to track deer shot with a .300 magnum, but they never seem to go anywhere when shot with a flat nose 30-30....

Hello everyone. I have been coming to this board for several weeks now , and I have been amazed at the wealth of knowledge that is posted here daily. I am hoping to benefit from some of your past experiances and advice now and in the future. Alright , on to my question ....I have been hunting with the same Marlin 30-30 for the past 15 years and I've made up my mind to upgrade to a newer , stronger rifle. All of the areas I hunt only offer shots under 100 yds , and more than likely , less than 50 yds . I don't want/need a a rifle capable of shooting 1000 yds, but I would like something that has a little more knockdown than my 30-30. Also , if you do know of a particular caliber that would be good for my situation , what grain bullet would you recommend ?
