i can't escape the Contrarian ranks: 17 Mach II, 6mm Rem, 280 Rem, 300RSAUM, 444 MARLIN
if i had to roll with just one it would be a 180 grain bullet of 30 caliber in a 308 Winchester... which I have never owned...

More 30's than anything else but 223, 257, 270, and 375 as fashion statements.
I am continually astounded at how quickly people make up their minds on little evidence or none at all. Jack O'Connor

.264, which is probably why I have none of them, because I'd hate to ruin the romance of fantasy in comparison to all I do have.
More in some cartridge of .308 diameter than anything else, but favorite, other than aforementioned, is .284.

I prefer the 6.5s. I have a 260, 6.5x55, 6.5x55 AI and a 6.5 Grendel I just built I'm working on some loads for.

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

I was a fan of 7mm cartridges since elementary school. Even made my forum name a play on 7mm cartridges. But I don't currently own a single rifle in 7mm, and the 6.5's are looking better all the time as they keep coming out with new bullets.

I have favorites. If just one, 338 in the 338 Winchester cartridge. 375 in 375 Ruger and H&H cartridges. 416 in 416 Ruger and Remington cartridges. 8mm in 325 WSM. 7mm in 7mm Remington and 7 WSM 30 caliber in 308 Winchester in an AR platform. 223 and 5.56x45 Those pretty much are my top favorites. Are you a 25 guy? Do you have all kinds of 6.5’s ? Are you a gay 270 man?? How about the 7mm’s ? Are you a man’s man and Blast away with 30 calibers? 8mm? 33’s??
I have multiple rifles in all of the above, but I’m a 7 mm shooter. I have a 7mm 08, several 7 mags and a 7mm ultra mag. If I could have only one caliber, it would be 7 mm.

Anything less than .308 caliber says MKV on it.

I don't see anything looming on this side of the pond(s) for me, that can't be done with a 30-30, 308, or .30-06. Just in case I have several smaller and one larger cartridge on hand.

Pragmatically: .308
But I love .264, 338, and 358...
For no good reason...
