    What caliber should I add to my collection?

    So if you were rounding out your rifle collection to hunt/shoot anywhere in NA, what would you add to the following list. And most importantly, why?

    .17 HMR
    .22LR
    .22 mag
    .223
    .243
    .25-06
    .270
    6.5 CM
    6.5 Grendel
    7 mag
    .300 BLk
    .30-30
    .308
    .30-06

      28 nos or 300 prc

      Cause you ain't got nothing on that list comparable and I don't like the .06 [emoji1]

        300 win mag. so you can take down the big boys.

        or 7mm08 to keep the recoil down.

          300 win mag
          338 win mag
          375 h&h

          I would definitely want a 338 win mag or 375h&h that way you have everything in NA covered.

          there's too many to list I love guns. My dream is to have a bolt rifle in every cartridge there is.

              A .30-30 Winchester goes on my list, it goes bang and then deer drop. And I like shooting lever action rifles.

                I forgot about that one. Added it right before you responded. Lol.

                  .338 win mag w/ 250 gr partitions would round it out nicely.

                    7mag would be my choice. You can kill anything from Yukon moose on down with it. Never understood why some people want to shoot 338 or 375. How dead do they need to be? I have seen plenty of elk killed with a 243. I have killed more deer with a 22 Hornet than any other caliber I own. Find something you are comfortable with and will enjoy shooting. 7-08 is a great choice as well.

                      Maybe a .35 Whelan , 338 Win mag, or a 375 H&H.
                      Looking at your list of cartridges you have rifles chambered for one of these should round you out.

                        300 wby mag
                        30-378 Wby
                        45-70 govt

                        Doesn’t look like your list has a lot of higher end knock down

                        All great calibers though

                          I see that you did 4R Daddy, we’re thinking the same about this fine old caliber.

                          And that’s a great tailgate pic of (I’m guessing) your boys with that deer.

                              Some kinda .338.
                              Some kinda .375.


                              And something around .45 cal just for fun.


                              I took a Canadian Constable (town's police chief there) hunting for pigs down here one time. He told me that everybody in his town usually carries a .375 WinMag as an all around hunting cartridge from deer to bear to caribou to moose. Most all his family shot .375 including his wife, mother, and father.
