Same here... There is just something about a classic old .30-30 lever gun. It's traditional... It's like part of American history...

Sure, I like .270's, 7mm-08's, and a buddy's new .243 that he bought. But I just prefer to keep on keepin' on with my trusty Marlin .30-30 rifle.

I voted for the 270. It just does everything I need a deer rifle to do.
