Looking for a 30/30 Winchester in great shape before I spend maje bucks on a new one? Anyone selling one? I have a rpal and I am a sane, normal human.

Tube. Old school reliable and I figured ammo would be more readily available. What do you think?30/30 ? Crowbar . Lol. In saying that I have a couple of them .
If buying go for the 45/70 .
You want a clip or the tube type ?
Yeh the tube is fine but a pain as need to jack all the shells out to unload .
Clip is nice for that .
The guide version of the levers are nice . A bit shorter for packing .
I have this one and real nice compact shooter but a Marlin 45-70
What is recoil like for the 45 70? I want the wife to be able to use it but not get flinchy and scared of big recoil. Whatcha think?
Not anymore then a 30/30 with the 45/70 400 grain bullet .
500 grain it kicks a bit more .
Thx for the knowledge and experience. I think I will do a 30/30 with a clip. Do u want to part with one? No stress if u dont. Love the clip tip!
Haha stop giving me so many options. 308 would be perf for farther away targets and easy to pack around. I will go research!
Scar Face used a 308............. HK91 with a grenade launcher
You want to meet my little friend !
I thought it was an M-16....can’t put an M 203 on a HK.
100%. With better ammo the 30-30 is more capable out to longer ranges but the iron sights on any lever gun are limiting it to being a bush gun.I got a Mossberg 464 in .30-30. Its ok I guess but its pretty much a crap shoot past 100m with the iron sight. Not the first gun I’d grab if it came down to it.
