Thread: Your cartridge of choice.

Over my years of hunting I have collected a small range of hunting rifles chambered for cartridges suited to the type of hunting I do. It has not been by conscious choice but I seem to have ended up with a pretty conservative collection. Nothing very modern, or extreme in any way but they seem to meet my needs just fine and do what I ask of them.

From left
.22lr subsonic for everything from starlings to hares at close range.
.17HMR. As above at longer distance and hope to use it on wallaby shortly.
.223 Rem. The occasional rabbit or hare up to goats
.308 win. Short range (<250m) goats, deer, pigs.
7mm Rem Mag. Longer range big game. Deer, pigs, chamois, tahr.
This lot suits me well and I think I now have something for every occasion. So I will never have to buy another rifle.
