Pick 5 cartridges that are "must have" in your safe, range, field, etc...

Must haves on any conceivable list are;

.22 LR
12 gauge

It gets fuzzy after that...

In the east only, I could add;

.243/.308/.358, I like the symetry of a .308 case family.

Or

.257R/7X57/9.3X62, for a little more panach and broader range of applications.

Or

20 gauge/7mm RM/.35 Whelen, considering the amount of shotgunning that I do.

Really, I wouldn't be handicapped with any of those groups.
 
For where I live & the critters I chase...


.22WMR
.308
12ga


(other "must haves"... but I don't hunt with them.... .22LR & .223) :)
 
.270 Win
12Ga
.45acp
9mm
.22lr

5.56 ... I could live with out my AR but I wouldn't be very happy about it. My SR45 won lol
 
I keep waffling on which five... here is my final answer;

12 gauge
.22 LR
.22/250 Rem
7X64 Brenneke
.350 Rem Mag
 
First four are easy:
12ga
.22lr
.375H&H
.45-70 Govt.

Number 5 is the tricky one; for now, I'd probably say .300WinMag...or .270Win...maybe .308...no, probably the .300...or...or...or... :)

Cool thread...why hasn't somebody started one like this before? :rolleyes:
