We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Non-magnum?... That narrows things down a bit.
In no particular order...

.223 rem.: cheap and easy to shoot
22-250 rem: I like exploding p-dogs
.44 special (we're not limited to rifle cartridges only?) not much recoil, and it makes big holes
25-06 rem: great deer hunting round.
.280 Imp.: I don't own one, but me father's keeps up with my 7mm mag with 10 gr less powder.

I've never needed any more "horsepower" in B.C. - but if I get more (just "because") highest on my list would be the .338, or for even more hp, I sure love the .375H&H.
