Here we go. Let it begin! ha.

I started life with a .30-30. Does fine to 100 yards. Next was .30-06. Probably the most versatile rifle made, because of the extreme variation in available OTC cartridges.

Then to a .270, and the .30-06 has been a Safe Queen ever since.

Last year, I got a .257 Wby Mag and the .270 is now relegated to my backup gun.

But it depends on:
A) Where you are going to use it, and how
B) The optics you put on it, which is WAY more important than caliber discussion
C) The cartridges you are going to shoot, because there IS a difference
D) What gun you can afford
