That's because it would be a 30-30 rather than a 30-06. ;-) LOL
You're making me remember a lab technician I worked with who grew up very rural and did two tours with the Marines in Vietnam, getting badly wounded during Tet. I always valued his take on things as it was invariably practical and from a hands-on perspective while I was wet-behind-the-ears and full of theory rather than experience. His tendency to spin tall tales and wax rhapsodic about hunting and his gun collection made many of our coworkers uneasy but I always found it "colorful" instead. :-)
