    One rifle for all NZ game (rabbits to deer), requires (I like to be absolute in my opinions ), a medium caliber and cartridge case, so lets call that between .243, .257 and .264 with a 50-65gr case capacity.

    Then combine that caliber to a light stock, a 22" barrel, med high magnification scope (4 -16x) and of moderate total rifle weight (6.5-7.5lbs).

    This is a great place to be for a 'do it all' carry rifle and my personal preference would be in the caliber of 6.5 Creedmore.
    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.
