Tikka/Sako in:
.223 Rem

Those three can do all I am likely to ever do with a rifle.

Right now I have the following.
Remington 700 Mountain rifle 243 win
Kimber Montana 300 win mag
Ruger #1 375 H&H
I do like that Kimber Talkeetna in 375 H&H though! Then again I would feel confident shooting anything in Alask with the 300 win mag.

What I'm using:
Rem 700 Mountain KS 30.06
Win 70 Classic Featherweight Stainless 300WM
If I were starting over, I'd get a Kimber Montana 300WSM and a 338 in either Ruger or Winchester.

I like the less-is-more approach; I think just one can be more than enough. IME the platform is more important than the cartridge. Light weight, reliable, easy to shoot, accurate and rust-resistant are my most important criteria. My pick for a factory rifle is eithter a 1st generation 700Ti or Kimber 84M Montana in some middle caliber (e.g. 308, 30-06 or something similar). For the last three years my 700 Ti 30-06 has worked very well on everything from grouse to grizzly, with sheep, caribou, black bear, moose, deer, coyote and probably some stuff I can't remember, in between. I haven't seen the need for two other rifles. ![[Linked Image]](http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq275/Theg_man/700Ti.jpg) This Cerakoted NULA 308 is my current choice for the all-around AK rifle. It's about a pound lighter than a stock 700 Ti LA and seems to shoot even better. I've only been hunting with it since November, but it's yet to miss anything I've had the occasion to shoot, from deer at 80 yards to a coyote at 600. ![[Linked Image]](http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq275/Theg_man/LTWT308.jpg)

Ok I'll play, but I think I finally completed my big 3 last week with picking up the one in the middle.
22-250(Ruger M77 MKII)
300WSM(Kimber Montana 8400)
338WM(Ruger M77 MKII)
Oh and my honorable mention is my summer/knockaround gun is my Marlin 45/70 GG.

"Ruger Haweye Alaskan in 375 Ruger for everything else
Oh, forgot I get a 3rd choice - another 375 Ruger Alaskan - a backup just in case."
That speaks volumes to your confidence in the Ruger Alaskan.
