Pondering the need for a 30-30 AI over the tried and true 30-30 for a Contender carbine length barrel. I currently have a 10" pistol barrel in 30-30 I'm loading for and getting the itch to pair it with a matching rifle. I know this subject has been covered before in other forums, but thought I might as well resurrect it for old time's sake. After all, here it Indiana, there's not much to do in February other than ponder the next barrel to load for. Be glad to hear all your thoughts. I seem to recall that Bobby Tomek used to post a lot of data with the 30-30 and JA used to love his AI. Anyone care to chime in?
