    I go for the "one rifle, one load" approach. Hence I've got a 7mm08 shooting 140gr ballistic tips. I think this is as good as anything for 70% of hunting in NZ: medium reds, sika, goats, pigs, ordinary tahr. Other cartridges are better for hares, Canada geese, targets, chamois, big tahr, wapiti and 300-500m but the 7mm08 can handle that 25% too, specially if you're familiar with it. It's a good all rounder.
