If we can get by without symmetry in numbers but with Designers/Manufactures. (It almost seems blasphemous to include the following.)

257 Weatherby
270 Weatherby
300 Weatherby
340 Weatherby
378 Weatherby
460 Weatherby

Choose three

Could do a trio from the Winchester family as well...

.243 Win
.270 Win
.308 Win
.338 Win Mag
.458 Win Mag

Win 70 7RM
Win 70 375HH
S X S 12 guage 3 1/2 inch with slugs( poor man's double).

400 H&H

700 N.E.

Or,

300 H&H
400 H&H
500 N.E.

I have to credit the first post of 303, 404 and 505 as the logical trio but there is some fun "others" that have been mentioned

TOBY458 · Feb 4, 2019

I'm completely surprised that none of you have picked the OBVIOUS WINNERS.
30/06
375 H&H
450 Rigby

222Rem
333Jeff
444Marlin

no dg though!

I’d only take 2 rifles. Since some countries that’s all that’s legal.

Option #1
.375h&h
.505gibbs

Option #2
.300wm
.416rigby

Might switch the 416 for a 458lott.

Witold KrzyÅ¼anowski · Feb 6, 2019

My trio:
7 x 57
9,3 x62
.404Jeffery

Ryan · Feb 6, 2019

12 gauge shotgun
280 Remington
375 Ruger

I think the OP was about 3 cartridges that have some kind on numerical onomatopoeia

My OCD finally figured it out

303 Brit

404 J

505 Gibbs

Game.over so let their never be any more discussion on Calibre on this site there are only 3 calibres as above .......

The beauty of.numbers and calibres

Let battle begin

Nice try... but Brit, Jeffrey and Gibbs aren't in alphabetical order are they?

Little bit of math involved but...

.204 Ruger (.204")
450/400 Nitro (.408")
500 NE (.510")

Formula is Caliber=(XYZ) where YZ=2X

Not true onomatopoeia but its satisfying to me.

LBARR265 got me thinking....

.204
.308
.416

Start with the .204
Next calibers....
x = x+1
yz = z*2

Make them all Rugers and we have a clean sweep.
Yet honestly the only one I covet is the .416

Well we’ll be in Africa for the entire month of August this year and are taking 3 guns. We are taking:

7x57 shooting 175 gr A-Frames
9.3x62 shooting 286 gr A-Frames
.458 Lott shooting 500 gr bearclaws

Newboomer · Mar 5, 2019

Where I am limited to 2 guns:
7RM with 160 g Barnes TSX.
375HH with 235 g and 350 g Barnes TSX.
