[QUOTE="Daves762, post: 1694223, member: 33751"] [ATTACH=full]145593[/ATTACH] I run the 300 WSM. I wasn't concerned with "the best caliber for...." I was concerned with ammo availability if SHTF. I run handloads through it for everything, but have the ability to buy factory and still find the ammo in nearly every store.

I had no access to a lath at the time, although now I build my own rifles. I would not change anything other than barrel weight/profile.
