im 12 this was for my 12th day and i hunted this whole last season with this and a win 243 but i like this better!! really nice looking, feeling, shooting, and just all around nice gun. the only negative i can think of is that the loading gate is tough to get rounds through and the lever is a bit tough to rack real quick but thats just becaouse i have to wear it in a little bit

I bought mine over 20 years ago and still use it regularly. If you are looking to make shots in excess of 200 yds, this is not the gun for you. Where I hunt, 100 yd shots are few and far between. Most are 75 and under. I do prefer my shotgun because of this but I love the 30-30 on those rare occasions when I have a longer shot. It has brought down numerous deer and is a great brush gun. Its short barrel lends itself to easily walking through thick brush and across a marshy coastal area. It has been exposed to salt water environment and still looks great with no blemishes. It has been cared for but only the basics. This is a solid, no frills rifle that gets the job done. I use the scope mainly as a set of binoculars, when I shoot, I use the open sights in the see thru mounts I have as thats how I learned. You can't buy a better made gun and the price is unbeatable.

What can you say bad about a Marlin 30-30? Nothing. Personally this was the first deer rifle I ever had. Dad bought me one from [...] when I was 12. I am now 25 and actually quit using it about 3 years ago mainly because my arms are just too long for it now. My older brother still uses his. I have killed 21 deer with the gun (yes I counted). The longest shot I made was a 198 yard shot accross a corn field. If you know how to shoot it you could kill a deer at 250 yards with a scope (I would suggest practice if you want to do that). The largest buck I ever killed, I killed with my 30-30 (140 class) with 170 grain winchester loads. The deer only ran about 50 yards. This is a great gun for a beginner or someone who doesn't have a lot of money for a deer rifle. Put a 3x9 scope on it and there is nothing deadlier.

A great gun, tough as a two dollar steak. Spare parts are cheap enough to keep a few things on hand. A great bug out gun. 125 gr bullet great for home defense. 30-30 is a classic deer killer. Has taken millions of deer over the years and none of them knew it was not the latest and greatest magnum. There are no degrees of dead! Ammo is sold everywhere and is easy on the shoulder. What's not to love.
