This is tough; the .270 WIN just barely edges out the .300 WIN MAG for my favorite.
One of the sanest, surest, and most generous joys of life comes from being happy over the good fortune of others.

Based on the proportions of rounds fired per year, clearly the 22lr. 1Minute

You know there's so many I'm fond of but think I like the 7 STW round the best.Awesome selection of bullets hard hitting flat shooting and recoil within reason.Also just looking at the case makes me happy.

I don't think that there probably has been a point in my life that the answer would have been anything other than the .30-06. My wife claims that I tend to be a bit inflexible. (In my beliefs and in my joints - I've reached the age where it is possible for some things to be too flexible.)

Put that plainly, I'd have to say the .30-'06.
