Nice collection! Is that 30-30 a marlin? It looks like one. The 700 is sweet. I ordered a new rifle about a month ago and it still hasn't come in. It's a Howa Thumbhole Sporter in .25-06. I like the 30-30 but I agree with Hammurabi that it does have it's limits at certain distances. I would take a shot out to about 200 maybe 250 yards with mine at the max. The 150gr. 30-30 round drops 12 inches at 250 yards then kills off to a 44 inch drop at 300 yards. This is of course if your gun is sighted in at 150 yards. What I really like about the
30-30 round is there is very little recoil, it's very pleasant to shoot.
