Because .30/30s are easy to carry and fun to shoot?
Actually, I switched to .270s a long time ago, because my .243 experiences weren't good (maybe bad bullets?), but this spring I picked up a .30/30 to mess with, and plan on using it this fall.
Congrats on getting a truly fun gun. Next thing you'll find yourself wanting a levergun in .45-70.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
