.22lr (great value here in use!!)
6.5 cm
.270 win
7mm RM mag
.300 win mag
9.3x62
.375 H&H

My next barrel will probably be a .17 HMR. Or something bigger than a .375 if it is made to fit in my standard width stocks.

I’ve always wanted the 7 RM but don’t know what gap it fills

I wish I had bought The .300 Win sooner in life. Most other calibers would be negated.

.257 Weatherby
6.5x55
.300 Win Mag
.375 H&H
.404 Jeffery (Custom)

Could pretty much hunt the planet and anything on it with the .257, .300, and .375.

 

[Green Chile]

Agreed with Red Leg's comments. My barrels are...22LR, 257 Wby, 300 Win mag, 375 H&H. I've thought about adding a 6.5 PRC since I use that a lot and a larger caliber like 416 Rem or 458 Lott as I use those also.

There are a number of people who don’t have a .22! That is the caliber we shoot in the yard at the house. It is the most used and has had many people use it. It turns into a fun shooting competition regularly.

Looks like the .300 WM and the .375H&H are most common. I bet that will continue as this thread fills up.

.223
9.3x62
.375h&h

I haven't considered a .22 because the .223 handles all the practice at ranges similar to what I shoot with the .375.

I've thought about adding a 6.5PRC and .280ai but I already have those chamberings in nice light mountain rifles so I probably won't. My R8 Ultimate is not a light configuration and I don't really imagine carrying it on long days.

If anything, I'll add something bigger than .375 but I really need a good excuse to do so.

.270
.300 Wby

Hopefully future purchases:
.22 LR
.257 Wby
..30/06
.375 H&H (rechambered to .375 Wby)
Possibly a .280 Rem, just because I love the round.
