One Caliber in Arizona

Recommended Posts

If you just had one rifle to hunt Arizona with, which one would it be? I have two 30-06's and two 7mm Mags, but I think I would still go with my .270.

30-06 is the most versatile caliber you can get, my family has taken

coues deer to Elk with that gun from 50 yards to over 500.

I own two .7MM Rem Mags, a 30-06, .308, and a trusty old 30-30. I grew-up on the 30-30 and .7MM Mags as a kid (dad's guns). They are mine now that he is gone, and I still love those big ol' .7MM Mags!!! lol Of late though, I am leaning towards the 30-06 (which I bought used from a great guy on this site...). The ammo is SO much more affordable than the .7MM Mag rounds. I don't reload, so cheap, available ammo is the determining factor. I don't shoot long range, and out to 300 yards or so they are both good.

 

So 30-06 for me. ;)

If I had to choose a caliber it would be either .30 or 7mm. For a cartridge, I would likely pick a 300 Win mag or a 7mm Rem mag. But the ol' reliable 30-06 is perfectly fine, too.
