.22-250 rem

.300 win

A shotgun is a gauge not a caliber so I omitted listing any shotgun chamberings.


For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

22 caliber
26 caliber
30 caliber
38 caliber
45 caliber

I still get to keep my .22lr, .223, .223wssm, 6.5 cm, 300blk, 308, 30-06, 357, 9mm(close enough to 38 caliber, right), 45 acp, and 45-70. Shotguns are guages, not calibers, so I get to keep all of them too. banana

Caliber debate ... posted in the firearm section sounds awesome.

Uncle Bubba is correct but for the sake of WTFs...two .22's, two .30 cals, and a medium NATO....add a shotgun

22LR
9X19
5.56X45
.30-30 WIN
7.62X39
20 ga


EDIT: Removing .30-30 in favor of 20 gauge

22cm? So, why all that wound channel research on the 223?

maybe the very boring answers but these would be mine. One exception maybe 6.5cm vs 308. I don't own a 6.5cm and I'm a self declared 308 fanboy. But when it comes to punching paper/steel for fun, the 6.5mm bullets are just awesome.


I'm a dude who likes long barrels!
