Guys, what cartridges give you the best results for the least amount of powder.
I would think the 35 Whelen or the 358 Win vs the 300 or 338 mags. Maybe some caliber that fits in the AR-15 mag well, like the 6.5 Grendel.

I'd guess that the 7.62X39 would be fairly high on the list.

Targets? Meat? A carpenter has a lot of tools in his box, not because they are fun to carry, they have specific things they are good for.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

223 would be hard to look past.
Any of the Grendel's or x39's.

One of our esteemed members from Florida has designed, built, tested and approves of a certain .22GTC ( I think that's what he's calling it)
It appears to have many uses.

45 colt out of a rifle can deliver a hell of a load with out much powder.
