Can confirm 30-30 v good on deer - 160-170gr slug hits them hard within its range which is about 250m max with the new leverevolution ammo. Almost all bush shots are under 100m and alot under 40m so a little winchester 94 or marlin 336 will do very well. Great rifles for their role. The number 1 and 2 biggest selling sporting centrefires in history. I never used a scope on my 30-30s in the bush, but if you want to scope rifle get the angle eject winchester or marlin and you can use a small say 2-7 power or 1.5 - 4x etc. 4X can be too much very very close. A 2.5x Leupy was my best bush scope.
