The .30-30 is my go to round for close range hunting in wooded areas. It has performed flawlessly for me time after time. I have rarely had to trail a deer with it, usually dropping them where they stand. I would never try to hunt anything larger than whitetail with it because that's just dumb. Choose the right caliber for what you are hunting and make a well placed shot and there will not be a wounded animal running off but yet meat on the table.

Currently my favorite is my .280 Ruger what a wonderful rifle. So far 1 ram, 3 elk and a Muley. Then the .300 Wby lots of history and countless hunting trips with it over 40 years. Then the 375 H&H , but the one that is special is the 250-3000 99 E the open sighted rifle I shot my first deer with, many years ago.

Re: Favorite Rifle?
For many uears my favorite was a Rem 660 in 308 w/2 3/4x Redfield scope. Then about 15 yrs ago I shuffeled through my rifle's using a couple different ones. Rem 700 in 25-06, Rem 700 in 6.5x06. The 660 ended up at my son's house, no idea how that happened. But several years ago I got a new Mod 70 Ftr Wt in 6.5x55 that's what I use nor.
