			Model 70, I have to agree with popplecop.  I have killed both hogs and deer with the .44 mag and the 30-30.  If there is a difference, then I think the .44 Mag does a slightly better job on hogs, deeper penetration, and more 'knockdown' power.  That might be due to the heavier 270 grain bullet I use in the .44 mag.  On deer, I don't see much practical difference.  I do not take shots much past 75 yards, due to the type of heavy cover I favor. 
I find both rifle calibers to be equally accurate out to  100 yards.  Much past that, the 30-30 seems to be more so.
