With leverevolution ammo, you can take deer out to 250 yards.
your probably right but i use bolt actions for longer shots. if you hunt brush and generally shoot less than 100yard shots i couldnt put a 3x9 on a 30-30. it ends up looking kinda goofy and bigger than the gun itself to me.
To each his own. I don't think my 336SS with the Conquest looks too "goofy", and the scope is definitely not bigger than the gun.
I do agree that there are much better calibers for longer shots, but I only have a Leupold VX III 1.5-5 illuminated reticle on my Blaser R-93 Professional Tracker in 308.
