What hangun to pair with 30-30 lever rifle?

I would probably opt for something in a Ruger Blackhawk, either .357 or .44 Special, and with a 4 5/8" barrel. Might also bring along a Single Six convertible for small game and for plinking.

For my Marlin 'Texan' .30/30 carbine I have a Ruger 'low back' 4 inch .357 magnum Security Six.

The companion for the Marlin 1894 .357 is a 2 3/4 inch 'low back' Ruger Security Six.

Did I mention I really like Ruger Security Six revolvers?

Leanwolf - I like your setup for scouting and/or hunting elk, etc. I used a similar combo (Redhawk 44 mag instead of the 45 LC) for years, back in the day. However, due to the current wolf problem, I've changed up my handgun carry to my 45 ACP XDm. It's lighter than my 357 Blackhawk and holds 13+1. I like that I can also reload so much quicker. In addition, for camp meat, I carry my S&W 317 in my fanny pack.

if you don't handload any .357 mag platform. If you do handload or plan on handloading any platform in .41mag or .45lc

I have to agree, a Blackhawk, Vaquero, etc.
