Marlin 30TK is my third Marlin 30-30. The other two had nicer wood, but I like the configuration on this one best and think it's going to stick around. It shares time with the lowly .243 Winchester.
I don't mind shooting a 30-06. It was my first centerfire in a 700 BDL. But what for.. I'm not hunting elk or moose.
I do have my sights set on another aught six though. 03A3 sporter. For nostalgia...and just in case I need to shoot Hogzilla at a distance.
