35 Remington is really hard to beat. Hard to kill one "deader". 30-30 works fine. You might could find a short one 18" barrel, which is a handy little devil. 35 Remington, in my experience,... better than 30-30 and not as overkill as 45-70. Good round. 45-70 in something like a Guide Gun = Show Stopper at those ranges.
Best misunderstood and labeled "woods" round ever = .356 or.358 Winchester. Hands down. Bought the same up close but just not as limited with it as you can comfortably shoot a bit further.

Never owned a 30-30 but I do own a 45-70 and it flats kills the hell out of deer. Devastating round. Only had 1 deer run and I hit it bad, every other DRT.
In your darkest hour when the demons come, call on me brother and we'll fight them together.

No one has said it yet and that prolly because it wasn't in the title but I would take a good look at the 444 as well.
Only accurate rifles are interesting.
