well I just ordered a savage axis left hand 243 and the reason I did as I shoot and hunt deer here in Oklahoma with my Winchester 94 30-30 as its just about right for deer here in this state but as for the 243 in this same state I wanted it on these powerline right of ways or long clearings as sometimes the deer are way past the range of my 30-30 so with the 243 I can reach further to make a clean kill shot! so the moral of the point is its better if one can to have more than one gun so you can cover most situations! like this rifle I ordered at Walmart it was only $308 for the left hand version and they had the right hand version right there for $269 but I am a left handed shooter so the little difference was worth it to me! but I do plan on also ordering later on as I charged this rifle on my Walmart card and once paid off I plan on getting the marlin 45-70 model 1895gbl as I like this for the idea someday hoping to get to go to either Colorado or Montana etc, for the larger game there, so if possible its best to have a few options!
You get that 45-70 and you'll find that your 30-30 will spend a little more time in the safe. And not because you'll take more trips to Colorado and Montana.
