Like Rocky I have a Savage 340 that I bought at a yard sale for a 100 bucks. Guy had 6 boxes of new Winchester ammo too in a 30 cal ammo can for 20 bucks. It sits in the kitchen area with a mag full of ammo for my wife to use if the coyotes or the wolfies come down messing with our cow critters. She can shoot it too. Found another magazine for it at a gun show for 5 bucks. So...125 bucks for the gun ammo and extra mag. What ain't good about the 30-30. I am not however a lever gun fan. I can even shoot pointy bullets in this'un.
