Forty four is excellent for short ranges, lets say inside 100 yards. It will shoot well further, but bullet drop becomes an increasing factor. The 30/30 is more accurate and will hold that accuracy much further than the 44 Magnum will. Both are good cartridges and from a lever gun very handy. Just look at them this way, 44 Magnum is a 100 yard gun and 30/30 as a 200 yard gun.
