Surprised several oldtimers with what "my" 30-30 would do. ;)
I wouldn't suggest using pointy-tipped bullets in a tube-feed 30-30 unless you want to surprise yourself with what your 30-30 would do. Might not be a bad idea either to set your affairs in order before you pull the trigger. Just for giggles, you might want to take that first shot from behind a very solid wall, and make it via a string tied to the trigger.
I "am" here today after all. ;)
