C. Davis,
I live in North Carolina and hunt heremost of the time. Most of my shots are limited to 100 yards or less. We do have a few powerlines and cut-overs on our lease where my larger calibers come in handy.
Allen,
Sounds a lot like my situation. A good number of the deer I have killed with the Marlin were within bow range. My biggest buck was shot at 12 yards away with the 30-30.He never knew where I was.I love being on well traveled trails in the woods up a tree. In that situation, the 30-30 is the perfect gun. IMO. I sometimes sit on a pipeline with the .270, but I would rather be in the woods.
Here is my 12 yard 10 point.
