Im inheriting this 30-30 from my uncle, I have a 30-06 but Love the 30-30 caliber, its gonna be for my dad, he can't really handle alot of recoil, so the 30-30 is just enough for him. Hunting over here in washington is pretty thick (western wa) anyways cant wait to get it and take it to the range for a fun day of shooting a great reliable cartdrige. thanks! great site
