From what I understand, a .357 lever gun can be fired inside without being hard on the unprotected ear. Does anyone know how tolerable a 30-30 would be inside? The rationale is that such a gun would be used for home defense or "Hurricane Katrina" disasters, and I want a lever gun that's effective to 150 yards but simultaneously suitable for 5 yards.
Also, I've heard that prices for 30-30 can be unexpectedly high. As far as trends go, are people moving away from the 30-30 in favor of different hunting cartridges?
