Between my wife and I we have guns in the following calibers: 303 Brithish, 308, 30-06, 300WSM, 300 Win Mag, 300 Weatherby mag, 300 Ultra Mag..and will probably have one in the 30Nosler.. If you are happy with what you have that is great however I welcome more. ..

I realize its not for everyone..but in my opinion, life is too short for one caliber..its like having one girlfriend..how do you know she's any good unless you have something to compare it to??

For where I live, the 30 caliber is one of the best choices for all around hunting...deer, elk, bear, etc..especially when using 200 gr bullets for the magnums..but I also like a lot of other calibers..so I do not restrict my hunting with those only.

As to barrel life, I will paraphrase the famous gun maker Melvin Forbes years ago while shooting prairie dogs in SD ...his barrel was really hot and a friend asked him if he was worried about damaging the rifle..to which he responded.."The last I checked they still make rifle barrels but I may never have this opportunity again". With that he kept shooting. That pretty much sums it up for me..
