Looking to have a "beater" out that won't bother me as bad
Tom, where you live, a lever action .30-30 doesn't work well as a house gun. Too many houses around close. There are lots of cheap beater shotguns to be had that will work better. and be safer to boot. Even a Marlin .22 auto would do for that duty. The one that sits behind my bedroom door is one of the old M2 carbine versions. $110 otd at Tim's pawmshop, and it is accurate and reliable as long as it's fed good ammo. Got an SKS carbine handy, but it's for outside.
