What four calibers would you choose

[melodyrain097]

My four calibres are:

.22lr - bolt action
.223 - bolt action
.308Win - bolt action
.375H&H - double

These cover everything.

22 magnum
44 magnum
5.56

I can fire the first 2 out of a hand gun and a rifle.

Caliber or Cartridge?
224
257
264
30 Calibers

 

[hunter0925]

.223
6.5x47
280ai
300wm

I can hunt anything with these 4 that I am realistically going to hunt and cover self defense if needed.

If I picked 1 pistol for what I do I would go 10mm

Shotgun would likely stay 12ga just because.

.257 (dual purpose)

I like that list….though, I'd drop the .308 Win from my line-up of 3 cartridges! memtb

[Aoudad shooter1975]

17 HMR
22 creed
33 nosler
375 RUM/ 378 weatherby (if I was completely irresponsible I'd do a 450/400 double instead)

If I had a shotgun I'd drop the 33 and go 12 ga ...if I had to have a pistol I'd drop the 17 and do a 357 wheel gun

Sadly, peeps often mistake them for the same thing, but most know they're not. You responded accordingly per the subject title.

I hate limiting myself, but I will play, just for the sake of playing. Below is the current (or in the process) calibers I have in my inventory (rifle only; handguns/shotguns are different), but the highlighted ones are my four play (pun intended) choices.

.17 (.17 HMR)
.22 (.22 LRs, .223/5.56s)
.24 (.243 Win)
.25 (.257 WBY)
.26 (6.5 CM, 6.5x55, .264 WM)
.27 (.270 Win/AI)
.28 (7MM SAUM)
.30 (.30 M1, .30-30, .308 Win, .30-06s, .30 Gibbs, .300 WMs/WSMs, .30 LARA)
.31 (7.62x39s)
.33 (.338 WM, .338 Thor)
.41 (.416R)
.44 (.44 RM)

But I'd need a shotgun, so if that had to be one of the 4, drop the 223 for 12ga.
