Another vote for the .357. Far more versatile, and available in a variety of loadings and a variety of rifles. (Lever, bolt and pump) The .30 Carbine is pretty much limited in bullet weight and the GI rifle (and its copies) that launch it. (excluding the old Levermatic).

And .38/.357 ammo and components are widespread.
