1. 22 long rifle--You have to have one
2. 223 Remington/5.56 Nato-- To compete in Highpower
3. 6mmBR--Most inherently accurate cartridge (I hate that term btw) I think you can sweep powder off the floor, reload a 6BR and it will still shoot sub-MOA
4. 308 Winchester--Deer size game
> * > 5. 338 Win mag--Can Hunt anything in North America. So can the 06, 7 Mags, & 300 Mags
6. 375 H&H--Can kill anything anywhere
7. 470 Nitro--Have to have at least one double rifle
8. 12 gauge--Birds
9. 9MM--Self Protection, and no, I do not squat to pee
10.44 Magnum--You never know when you may need to go Dirty Harry on something
My insert * at # 5
