[QUOTE="jpfrog, post: 2187101, member: 32525"] I've been thinking of a reply for this all day. A lot going on here. First, you seem to have everything covered already with what you have, but that doesn't help you use up that fancy new action, haha. If you're missing anything in your current lineup, it's something in .277 caliber. IF you get rid of one rifle, I would lose the 300wsm. You have a great .30 in that Sherman already. If you're getting rid of only one, I would not get rid of the 6.5x55...that one's a classic as well and will cover your needs on its own. To replace it, I don't see how you could go wrong for mulies and lopes with a good 'ole .270 Winchester. It's the first cartridge I ever fell in love with, which makes me like millions of other people out there. Or, since you're not opposed to wildcats, I would go 270 Sherman...then you'd have two Shermans and that would be cool. If you replace both the 300wsm and the 6.5x55, then I would get another 6.5 but, you guessed it, the Sherman. Honestly, though, if you can cover the remaining build costs by moving only the 300wsm, I would do that, keep the 6.5x55, and build a 270 Winchester or Sherman. Good luck- you're the fun stages for sure! [/QUOTE]
