Almost the same as me. Started with a 270. Then a 22 magnum which is pretty useless without private land to shoot on.
Nowadays the 270 is joined in the safe with a 22lr and a 223 which is a great calibre on wallabies. Still haven't taken a deer with it yet because @Micky Duck is always hitting them first.
