One rifle, one caliber and one bullet/load will do it all.

I've hunted and killed with most of the calibers I mentioned but within the stated meaning of the article, they all leave something off the "table".

One rifle, one cartridge but the original article specifically discusses different bullet weights.

Between the two (.30-06 and .300WM), if I had to stick with one bullet for everything a .30-06 and a 165/168g bullet would get the nod.

For the 20+ years I had one bolt rifle, a 7mm RM and 160g bullets did p-dogs. coyotes, antelope, deer and elk.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
