I was given a 30-30 as my first deer rifle when I was a youngster and I hated it. I didn't like having to cock/decock it, esepecially on cold days with numb hands and fingers, I didn't like having to cycle all of the shells through it to unload it, ... I hunted with the rifle for one season and killed deer with it, but I convinced my dad to buy me something else before the next deer season.
