Pick 3 **centerfire cartridges** to cover NA game

[The Kurgan]

No BC turkey for you! There are large areas that are shotgun only for deer.

A few friends own property in rural Stoney Creek... tons of turkey there... but, they shoot 'em, I help eat 'em. My 12 ga is primarily on "defence duty" and not much else.

Well you are missing most game in NA. Unless you want to shoot small game, upland bird and waterfowl with a 30-20
For NA game it would need to be
375 H&H Mag
7x57
12ga

You like vanilla ice cream, don't you?

What's wrong with vanilla ice cream?

It is tough to come up with an answer when a person has over a couple dozen rifles but here goes :

- a 223.
- my 270/08 wildcat.
- a dependable 35 Whelen.

Center fire cartridges would be
.22-250 for critters
.303 Brit for nostalgia
.300 win mag. Long range and big animals
Then I'd have a 12 gauge because that's a shell not a cartridge and a .22Lr to round out the collection.

If I touched off a cannon like that, there'd be a dead critter on both ends of the gun.

Though truthfully... 270 for everything I'm going to do, and extra beer.
