Vince, I dint have a T/C but I thought the law say that anything below 40cal or 10mm and got a barrel above 100mm is legal.. How come you have to hand in a 30.30? you could use that for silhouette shooting.. PS, I am a HK P7 in 9mm... |

Vince, Yes the 30-30 TC is a sweet one. I was driving through the ranch one day with the windows down on my pickup and saw a doe out of my passenger-side window (that looked fat enough to make some fine camp meat) so I pulled the 30-30 Contender and dropped her with one shot at about 100 yards. My only problem was that the barrel was still inside the cab of the truck when I touched her off and it rung my ears! Not a wise move. I recommend that you stick the barrel out of the window. The longest shot that I ever made with the 30-30 TC was about 250 yards (on some wild hogs). That 14 inch bull barrel is a good one. We were combining corn and ran about 5 of them out of the corn field. I got two of them before they made it to the brush. Sounds like a windy story, but I'm willing to bet that Vince will back me up on the abilities of the 30-30 TC. Cary |
