re: The old veteran 30-30

Why would anyone want to shoot a cartridge that was developed in the 1800's and can't be factory loaded for modern guns because someone might plug a round into an old gun and blow it up? I guess the thought of shooting grandpa's gun is appealing.

Some people realize that it doesn't take a 300 WSM or some similar cartridge to kill a deer. If you never shoot at deer over 150 yards, there's no reason to own any other caliber really. It kills deer dead. All that being said, a 30-30 really isn't about the cartridge, it's about the rifles they are chambered in. They are short, light, and handle well.
