[aglo]

Ruger Redhawk in 44Mag with 7.5 inch barrel (oh, wait, already have one!). If you have one of those you don't really need anything else!

 

[CV32]

6.5x55SE.

 

[kjohn]

Sorry, the word NEED is not allowed here. Try "want, figured I should, could do with, etc."

 

[Gatehouse]

6.5 Creed in a precision rig.

 

[cbh560]

The 222, 7mm-08, or the 375 would be where I'd put my money. But that's thinking about what I already have in my own collection...

 

[SHELL SHUCKER]

I reckon one could do fine with a Rem 783 Jackaroo in 6.5 CM.

 

[ndallyn]

You “need” something based on a Mauser case (257 Roberts, 7x57, 8x57, 9.3x57, 6mm rem).

the 257 roberts is tickling my fancy especially for my young son when he grows a bit more. (10 y.o) so thinkin 243-25 area

 

[woodchopper]

distinct lack of diversity in the 6mm - 6.5mm range, lots of choices

personally I would look at a 1/4 bore, 257Roberts or 25-06 would fill the gap

I think I'd recommend two, a long barrel .300 magnum and a big case .375. A .30 caliber rifle that will drive a 200 gr bullet 3000 fps is infinitely useful, if you can manage it. Once you've shot game with a proper .375, you can decide whether or not a big bore rifle is necessary or desirable.

 

[Slimbo]

Sell the hornet, the 303 and the whelen. Go hunting in nz!

Maybe buy a 243 if you want a rifle for the kid
