30 U. S. Army and .35 WCF. Try buying a box of the latter at Bass Pro Shop!!

In a rifle it would be 284 Winchester. Pistol would be 455.

8mm Remington Magnum .... wish I still had my 1998 Rem 700 Classic .... what an awesome cartridge .......
7.65 Argentine ....... 1909 .....lots of history there, My grandfather somehow got that thing out of Europe into South America in the 50's and into the US ..... It was given to me after he passed away 12 years ago ....... still have a box full of old Belgian ammo (or so I was told) he brought with it .....

303 British I also enjoy hunting with the 405 WCF, 348 Winchester, 32 Win Special and the 300 Savage

250 savage, 300 savage, 350 Rem Magnum Count me in, too. I bought one on a whim here, and it was love at the break of the first trigger press. FC

33WCF, 38-55 are two of my favs, with honorable mention to 50-70. The 250-3000 is also such a pleasure with light recoil & easy reloading.

Qualifies because it's seasonal?

The .358 Norma here. 35's are just cool for every kind of big game. I like the .25 cals that are missing too. (.257 Roberts etc...) I am tired of buying rifles chambered in cartridges that are hard to find and reload.
A 30.06 will do everything I have been doing for years. Yet I don't hunt with any of mine.
I like fast sevens - a lot. But there are only so many you want in your stable. Fast 30's have a place at my campfire, but the .35's ummmm. Good critter medicine.
Here lately I am looking at .308 long range platforms, a short handy .25 something, and a new custom .45 acp. Dont know why just am......
