I"ve got a little Berretta .25. I admit that I have used it as my only carry gun. But then, I was wearing shorts and flip flops. Kinda hard to hide anything else.

Tough question. But usually one of three. 1911A1, S&W 1917 or Ruger BH. All in .45 of one flavor or another. Never used one in camp on anything four legged. Twice it's mere presence on my hip persuaded "people" to take a somewhat different course of action.

Fast and reliable. But get a demoon and a mooner. They make filling and emptying the clips quick and easy. They aren't needed on my 1917, as the cylinder is setup so that the round will headspace correctly. but ejection then requires a wood dowel or other such tool.

Can't speak to the 30-30, but the 45-70 is about as accurate and realiable as any factory ammo. It does shoot flatter. If the darned deer would cooperate, I could let you know about terminal performance.
