I have Four .338 Winchester Magnums, and One .338 Remington Ultra Magnum, Does that count? Oh yeah, and a .375 H+H Magnum, the icing on the cake! Good man. Got spare "elk rifles" to pass out to your buddies at camp huh . Did you go elk hunting this year??? I really like my 375 H&H too.......I agree about the icing on the cake. Yes sir, went Elk Hunting this year and used a small gun, the .300 WSM Model 70 Winchester Featherweight, loaded with 200 grn Partitions, my arm was in a cast for three months, so my .338 babies stayed in the safe. The WSM got the job done.
Forget the past the past is gone forever, right now is where it's happening.

Going scouting tomorrow and hunting on the 17th......

Heck, I have four rifles in a chambering I don't even like! (I swear, two of them are donors!)
And yes. two are (well, were) identical outside of one being CroMo and one SS.

The only dupe I have is 22lr...however have been considering picking up one of those nasty miserable kicking wood stocked plastic buttplate, flat backed old Savage 110s in 30-06 and loading up some full tilt 180 power points or 200gr Hot-Cors for next time my brother in law asks to borrow a rifle.

Ya, it is normal. At one point I had 5 35 Whelens, and 4 of them were Remington 7600's. I currently have 2 257 Roberts and 2 30-30's.

I've got multiples in 22LR(4), 223(3), 243(2), 300 Sav(6), 358 Win(2), 30-06(4), 444(3), and 45-70(4). I guess that makes me pretty much normal.

Multiples in 270, 7x57, 30-06, 8x57, 35 Whelen, 9.3x62 and, of course, the 22 rf. Some never shot.

I don't know what's crazier...owning multiple rifles in the same chambering, or multiple rifles of different chamberings that do essentially the same things.I'd rather have duplication than overlap.
After 40+ years of this stuff, I'd rather have 2-3 270's than a 270, a 280,and a 7x57(for example).But if you're a rifle nut I guess overlap is inevitable.
The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

Kind of hard when I own one rifle...
Might be adding a Vanguard S2 in 270 Winchester after a few of those mighty paychecks.

Lots of 22LRs. Couple of 30-06s. Couple of 45-70s. Three 12 guages. Couple of 6.5x55s. Only one 303 Br. Only one 300 WM. Only one 405 Win.
I really need a centrefire 22 of some variety. or a 250 Savage.
