What about 22?
Phillip Holden did a few hunts with the outfit I guided for (good bloke I liked him) & I also read all his books at school & after, but he only used a .243Win because he hated recoil & couldn't take a lot of shots with more, we did up grade him to a 25/06 later !
I think the 30/06 is the do it all if a reloader & 308Win if not, I'd pick 30/06 -.223 if I had to pick two, if allowed 3 add 12ga if 4 add .22LR !
And fishing rods.
With about to be three licence holders under this one roof we can cover all the bases pretty much but I'm still a fan of my two big bore artillery pieces.

That will.do most things
Why make do with an adjustable spanner when you have the option of a socket set. I for one would like a full 500 piece tool set !
If I had to choose 2.
7 rem mag. Loaded down for regular use and full load for mountain.
12g. A man needs some room to room firepower when anarchy breaks out along with a 2 gun rule
Greetings All,
Too answer the 2 gun question. For me the first choice is easy .223 rem. Age and a certain level of decrepitude has resulted in hunting, for me, to be limited to the flatter stuff and not too much of that. The .223 will do everything I need well enough. The second choice is far more difficult. Do I go for my scoped .303? One of the .308's? 6.5 x 55 T3? Damned if I know really. Hopefully I never have to make the choice.

270 Win - 110 ttsx and 150 partitions. 2nd shooter would have to be a shottie, small game and ducks. That would cover most situations for me.
