For "hunting" only, not plinking, target shooting or self-defense:

.350 Remington Magnum Remington Model 7 KS...weighs 7# even and a joy to hunt with. This gun covers 90+% of the big game hunting I do.

.257 Weatherby in a Remington Model 700 stainless fluted 26" that needs a good quality synthetic stock. When you have to reach out there..

.22-250...don't have one at this time but did and the added range over a .223 just makes it better for hunting... Shot Travis' when I visited him and was very impressed...

Last would be the boring .308...a bolt gun of some kind with a 20-22" barrel. Mackay's daughter killed her elk last year with one at 375 yards...what won't it do?
