I finally came across a 30-30 barrel locally. It’s a 23” bull that I think will work quite handily with a carbine setup. I have an unused Vortex Venom that’s languishing in a pocket of my range bag that will get tried out first although I’ll probably go the route of a 1-4 LPVO.
The picture was just for fun but I suspect if I had a good shooting stick I could make it work.
