Gotta love the old .30-30 threads. Will a .30-30 kill a <your favorite animal here>. Come on everyone. You know deep down in your heart that the .30-30 is enough to take a moose, bear, elk, pig, and deer.
If you don't, then:
1) you haven't hunted with the .30-30.
2) had big gun envy as a kid. Dad h as a .30-06 and you had the lowly .30-30 WCF.
3) mad some bad shots, and lost an animal, and blamed it on the cartridge to save face
4) you get my drift.
What can a bow do that a .30-30 cannot? That is a serious question.
YOu may have to plug the moose 2 to 3x before it gets on the groud. You would likely have to do that with a .30-06, also.
I have a .303 British. If I get an elk tag or moose hunt, I'll likely take it with irons, or my .50 caliber Thompson Center Omega.
