RE: 30-30 Lmao
I have bagged more deer with the 30-30 without having to chase or track them. I do respect its range however. 200 yards is about max and then only with a good scope. What the 30-30 lacks in speed to the 243, it makes up for with bullet weight. IMO. I consider both about a 200 yard max deer gun. They would be easier to hit at long range with the 243. But I have seen many run away at that range.
