On paper the 30-30 has similar ballistics as a medium sized rock thrown by a girl in junior high. I've read several articles that suggest the Winchester Model 94 30-30 has killed more animals than all other calibers combined. I tend to believe it. For a dense brush gun it's hard to beat a Trapper in 30-30. Personally, I've always been partial to anything with a .308 parent case. Ok, I'm just partial to anything that goes *BOOM!*.
