the 30-30 winchester being better for black bears than the 44 mag was a joke right? If not is sounds like it is. I would take it over the 30-30 any day of the week and twice on sundays

I agree with Brian. The 30-30 will have a little higher velocity and energy, but the heavier .44 bullet will probably penetrate better and will leave a better wound channel.
