So far we have a couple with experiance with the Savge 170 that say it is OK and a couple of others who have "hear say" that say it is no good.
I am no fan of these rifles as I sold the two I had. To the OP I'd say your friend has a inexpensive 30-30 that should work for him. I would not have traded a model 29 off, but enjoy your guns. Savage made good stuff.
