Most of my small game shooting is done with bolt action rifles and by far I do this the most. .22 Mag and .222 plus of course shotguns which are doubles.

Medium game hunting I again mainly do with bolt actions and a lever action. .30-06, .308, 6.5x55. Deer, pigs, goats, other game.

This may change a bit with my new rifle, a Tikka with stacked barrels in 9.3mm. If I can get say .30-06 barrels for it, then that will get a work out on medium game (in addition to the 9.3 mm barrel). The .30-06 with a scope may provide the ranges needed. Don't know yet.

On small game if I can get a .222/12g barrel it will be a lot of use.

For big game I use a .375 H&H bolt action plus my .450 double. My .450 has only started its hunting career.

On balance I use bolt actions mostly. This will change as I get the tools for the other jobs.
