BTW I grew up using a Lithgow Slazenger single shot bolt action in .22 RF. And a side by side .410 shotgun.

Neither are "all round hunting rifles".

Later a Remington 788 in .222 Rem, which I still have. And plan to start using more again. So I don't have to change the barrels and test sight in my Mauser M03 so often.

May have some old ammo still around to, I hope.

Used that rifle for rabboits, hares, foxes, feral goats, even fallow deer. For many a year. Then the .30-06 Parker Hale M98, which was much better on medium stuff. It still is my reach for rifle at short notice and the standard for all the others.

Just as is my Jeffery DR in .450 NE for anything properly serious.

I could "get by" with three such rifles. Plus shotguns.
