By no means do I condone only owning 4 rifles but if you had to have only 4 what would they be?
Mine:
22-250 Rem 257 Roberts 7X57 Mauser (but could easily switch for 280 Rem) 338 WM
Of course this would be the list today!!

When truth is ignored, it does not change an untruth from remaining a lie.

.22LR small game, up to WT deer in a pinch, target practice cheap.
.223- M4 carbine for property defense, varminting.
.30-06- Anything bigger than a rabbit in the lower 48, and even small game with reduced loads.
.45-70- I like it, it works- on everything that walks, my close range hammer for dangerous game.

There it is. While a 12 ga isn't technically a rifle (original question criteria), I would gladly trade in one rifle choice for a solid 12 ga pump shotgun. With the four above, I could hunt anything that I'll ever encounter.

22lr 30-30 win 270 win 338-06
Whatever a 7x57 can do a 270 can do better.
True fair chase is you in the woods buttnaked with nothing but your finger nails and teeth.
If you'e fixin' to put a hole in something, make it a hole to remember.

.22 LR CZ 452 .223 DPMS 20" bull barrel 7 mm Rem Mag Rem 700 in Mickey stock 338 Ultramag Rem 700 They are all serious tack drivers. I reckon those four would take care of just about anything I care to shoot at. Of course they would get lonely without their other battery mates.
