Welcome to Huntchat !
Well, let's see.... for deer, the 30-30's been doing fine for a long time. For elk and moose, it's on the light side.
The 45-70 will work fine on deer, although in the hotter loadings, it's more than you need. The 45-70 would be preferable for elk and moose.
I guess I'd say that if elk and moose are more than a distant dream, I'd get the 45-70.
