    3030 is fine, as are any of the pistol calibres but unless you reload for them you are stuck with pistol powered factory ammo and potentially loose a lot of stopping power.
    Open, ghost ring or even a red dot are your friends perfect for snap shooting and precise enough with the 3030 at least to deliver with sufficent accuracy to 100 or 150 yards if required.
    But 38/55 and 45/70 have a bit of wow factor
