[QUOTE="rbTanzan, post: 3038071, member: 53978"] Gotta go with Mountain Sloth. Of course, the 300 PRC today is essentially the 300Weatherby with a fast twist barrel and reasonably priced brass. Properly hand loaded the 300PRC could cover most of the 375 Ruger in a pinch, and with a muzzle-brake it's a "270" for most any medium game at reasonable ranges. So with the 300, maybe go up to a 416Rigby hand-loaded (the 416Ruger is OK as a lighter-carry substitute), for bigger stuff. And a 223 or 243 for little stuff. But most of my old-fashioned life has found the 270Win, 338WM, and 416Rigby to cover everything. So you can't go wrong with a 270, 300, and 375. [/QUOTE]
