The 280 Rem is my all time favorite general purpose cartridge provided you handload and keep a generous supply of brass.
If you travel you want a 270 which does about 96% of what a 280 Rem can do unless you think you want to shoot at things farther than 400 yards or so. Then you need some sort of 7mm.
