The title is "Your Favorite North American Hunting Caliber*.
I see a lot of caliber "X" or caliber "Y" would be the "best" all rounder.
My favorite North American hunting caliber is neither flashy nor popular (south of the 49th parallel).
From mice to moose, the .303 British just plods along and knocks critters over without much recoil or muzzle blast.
I have to agree. I tried a 30-06 and it left me cold, wouldn't do anything the 303 wouldn't. Best thing the 30-06 can be used for is to neck the case to a 270,280, 338 or 35. :-)
If it is a North American calibre then it would be a toss up between the 270win & 35 Whelen.
