Thread: If you could have only one rifle

As the title suggests, if you were only allowed one rifle for all your hunting, what would it be and why?

I’m about to head down this track through necessity, and out of the two rifles I have (BSA .222 and Rem .308) the .308 gets to stay.

It’s about the right weight (7lb) short, suppressed, accurate and has enough power for the largest animals, and aside from rabbits, not too big for the smaller animals. Reloading components are readily available, and she’s easy to get a good load for. The only downside for me, is that she’s not a particularly ‘sexy’ rig. Just capable and reliable.
