Good point....
Another point is that the 30-30 lever guns are equally at home along side the big "ultramagnumthunderboomers"

. See, the other guys at deer camp all have scoped bigger rifles. I just continue to keep on keepin' on with my Marlin 30-30, and it's cool. It works out great that way.... I stick to the heavy timber, brush, and thickets, while the guys go up on the ridges and overlooks and we push deer back and forth to each other.
