Some cartridges legal for deer hunting include the .357 Magnum, .38-.40 Winchester, .41 Magnum, .41 Special, .44 Magnum, .44 Special, .44-.40 Winchester, .45 Colt, .454 Casull, .458 SOCOM, .475 Linebaugh, .480 Ruger, .50 Action Express, and .500 S&W"

I don't believe a .30-.30 would be allowed. Am I right?
That info is weird. They say "rifle" and then list a bunch of handgun cartridges while omitting a lot of rifle rounds that would fit their definition.
Maybe that section is only for rifles that shoot handgun loads.
Edit: Or maybe that's all they want you to shoot with. Not many large caliber rifle round cases less than 1 5/8" long.
