Grew up and live in Zimbabwe, I think I could get my armory down to only two for pretty much everything I would ever need.

.22lr and .375H&H

Ok, I’ll throw a .308 in there just because of how nice it is to shoot. But I don’t NEED it

Nah, not really. Its just a matter of getting the license, which here means proving why you need the gun. And then you have to renew the license every year. And we are limited to how many rounds we can purchase on a license for that year, depending on your license type usually around 50 rounds per year

You can reload in zim though yes?

 

[Clodo Ferreira]

Ah...once more...again...I am in:

22 LR bolt action. A must!
7x57 or 30-06 (count as one, either)
9,3x62-375 H&H (again, count as one, either)
458 Win

If a shotgun can be add, a 12 g, of course.

 

[spike.t]

I might have missed the info...but in the limit of 4 ...is that centre fire rifles or does it include shotguns and rimfire rifles....or are they exempt?

 

[Clodo Ferreira]

I spike,

I was wondering the same question...

 

[txtrout75218]

I'm going to have to think through this question a bit more and reserve the right to change my picks. I've recently decided that I need to try and limit myself to 4 bolt action rifle cartridges. Issue is the practicality perspective vs favorites... And that so many items in the current stable actually overlap.

I currently have about 13 cartridges with way too much overlap in performance... And often in bolt and single shot.

From my current crop of stuff for my anticipated needs over the next 10 years with an aspect of pure practicality.

22 Long Rifle
223 Remington
308 Winchester
35 Whelen

Even though I use a 7-08 most of the time, even in Africa. I could also switch out the 308 for a 30-06 if forced to reload and use the 30-06 cases for 35 Whelen.

If rimfire is not included in the list:

223 Remington
308 Winchester
35 Whelen
357 Magnum

 

[Challer]

If center fire only:
22 Hornet
223 or 25-06
30-06 or 308
375

If the list must include all
22lr
30-06
375
12G

By the way, I have all of them minus the 458 Winchester.

 

[MesquiteAndMopane]

22 long rifle

Yes, that we can do. Have to import everything, but it’s doable. My cousin reloads all his calibers
