Sorry but a 30-30 won't kill modern deer. You need some kind of a Magnum for sure. I have seen modern deer(Kevlar Hide) just laugh off the sorry old 30-30.
Go for a Short Mag which beats the hell out of the OLD long Mags with no recoil. They also will drag your kill out and skin it.
Them old antique deer would go down just fine from a 30/30 a couple hudred years ago.
LMAO @ this post.
