I'm all about a 30-30. Great round with a lot of usefulness in a very cool lever platform (I know, it can be in other platforms than a lever, but levers are by far most common). I just traded with a member for a 336/30A, and plan to get my old 94 fixed soon (light firing pin strikes). I've always loved them. For whatever reason I've never been able to deal the deal on a deer with one, but I'm planning to make it happen during the week of Christmas.
The mental gymnastics in this article though are amusing to me. I wonder if this guy even believes what he's saying, or if he's just trying to cater to the "old man yells at cloud" base.
"Bullet erosion" makes the 30-06 and 308 less effective killers of deer?!? Really?!?
Shooting over 175yd is not hunting?
Some more interesting "facts" shared in this article.

A .30/30 Is All You Need (If You Know How to Hunt)
The .30/30 has taken elk, moose, bears, and lions. It actually outperforms the .308 and the .30/06 if you're skilled enough to get close.
