Buy recommendations Lever action 44mag or 30-30

Can someone please suggest?

I only shoot in range. No hunting. I don’t like 357mag.

Shoot from 15yard to 100yard

Thank you!

30-30 can be pricey and really only provides a benefit if you plan on hunting. For your use case, you’ll have a ton more fun with 44. It is closer to the old cowboy loads, lighter recoil, and cost effective for plinking

Good to know. I’ll get a 44 mag
