From what have read the 7.62 x 39 is balistically similar to the 30 30, so I would call it very adequate for deer, and it uses spitzer bullets so it would be better than the 30 30 range wise. As for a bad image, what is the game warden going to do, take your library card away? Exercise your 2nd amendment rights! If it is legal, then by all means use one. You can get 5 round mags for it if there is is a limit on how many rounds you are allowed to have in the chamber and the magazine combined.
