One caliber/gun...for North America?

[Jon B]

Saw a commercial on the pursuit channel, something like 7 states one caliber...looked like they went from Texas and up to Montana.

I am bored and was curious if you could only have one rifle/caliber to hunt all of the US what would it be? Everything from Javies and Coues deer to Elk, Moose and grizzly.

I am a serious .308 fan down here in Texas but, I believe I would go with a 7 mag with a really heavy bullet.

What's your pick?

6.5 prc, or 7 mag would be my top choices. But would be fine with 6.5 creedmoor or 7mm-08, 284, 270 and many others.

Thanks for the link! I have a problem with the statement that .223 terminal performance is the same as .270 or 300 mag. But to each his own.

.300 Win Mag with 180gr Barnes TTSX would be my choice without hesitation.
