I don't hunt anything larger than deer, and black bear and really don't ecpect to. I mostly use my 30-30 when hunting as I like to get in the woods rather than hunt over open fields. I do own a Savage 7mm RM but I haven't used it since I bought my 30-30 back in 2003. Lately I've been thinking about tradeing the 7mm RM for a .243 for the occasions were I may find myself hunting over more open terrain. So what do y'all High Roaders think trade the 7mm off or keep it.
