RE: 30-30 question...good for long range?
Yeah I'd take along both rifles too.
No matter what caliber your toting; between hunting seasons practice, pratcice, practice.
And, if you aren't, get into reloading gives you more, less expensive but quality ammo, for more practice.<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
That will let you develop the skill to use both guns/calibers to their maximum effective range.
