... to have so many.
.300BLK (S&W AR)
.30-30 (Marlin 336)
.308 Win (Ruger Scout and custom AR)
.30-06 (Ruger M77 and MKII, Remington M700)
.300 WM
===============
8 total
I don't even care for ARs, but have 3 total. Should probably sell all but the Ruger Scout and .300WM, but plan to pass most of my rifles down to daughters and grandkids. Oldest is 5 so it will be a while.
The .300WM get used the most - by far. It was also my first .30.
Coyote Hunter - NRA Patriot Life, NRA Whittington Center Life, GOA, DAD - and I VOTE!
No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.

2 300 WSM's
2 30-06's

It also makes my reloading bench a little more simple as i dont have to inventory a bunch of different diameter bullets like i used too 👍.....Hb

They seem to accumulate.
Remington 700 left hand KS Mtn Rifle 300 H&H
Browning BAR 30-06
BSA Majestic 308
Custom Krag 30-40
Winchester 64 30-30
Marlin 336 30-30
I think that's all of them.
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

I'm down to 5. 3 of them are 30-06.
I am continually astounded at how quickly people make up their minds on little evidence or none at all.

I have 9. Or 14
Are we counting .30 calibers or .30 firearms?
(if .311-.312 counts as 30 cal, I have 13. Or 18. Maybe more, I dunno)

3 M1 Garands,
1903A3 and an
M1 Carbine.
We don't have a big calling for 30 calibers in Iowa. Targets and coyotes only.

I had two .30-30s for quite awhile, then they introduced the Creed. I felt so inadequate I sold them.
I am..........disturbed.

I'm right there with you. I've got 6 .30 cal rifles, after swearing 25 years ago I would never own one. My favorite caliber is .284, and I am down to one, my .280 Rem.

Geeze, I never thought about it. I didn't get any because I thought they were best, but I have a few.
1-Garand
1-03a3
1-model 70, 30-06
1 Savage 1899 30-30 SRC
1 Savage 99F 303
1 Savage99R 300S
I think I have a couple more. I like the 250-3000 best of all.
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.
