I have a 30 year-old Marlin 336 in 30-30. It shoots well, is slick enough, and I've figured out that i can shoot cast reloads in it for cheaper shooting.
Ive thought about adding a pistol-cartridge carbine to my safe as a home defense/bug out gun.
Would i gain anything over the 30-30 by getting a 1892 in .45 Colt or .357 Mag? The benefit I see is one box of ammo can double for handguns and carbine. Other than that, anything else?
