Reduce Calibers? Streamline or Diversify?

I have a bunch of guns I could easily do without, but I'm too much of a collector/accumulator to downsize.
 
I have firearms that shoot a pretty standard and common set of cartridges. I'm certainly not going to add anything else unless it does something significantly different, but I have the bases covered. I'm done adding to the collection - now I'm focusing on just shooting what I have a bit more, or at all. I have a few inherited ones I've still never taken to the range.
 
Currently I have rifles or carbines in the following calibers:
Many 308s
A few 300 Win Mags
A couple 243s
1 700 Rem Mag
1 375 Ruger
1 6.5 Creedmore
1 45-70 Government
1 44 Mag
1 357
Several 556
2 7.62x39

so basically should I keep them all or streamline down and if so what would you recommend I add or get rid of and/or keep?
There is no chance I am getting rid of 308 as I have both a diverse collection of semi automatic and bolt action in 308
I have a mouse l more diverse assortment than that and I am kicking the same idea around. My nephew summed it up when he said which one will you sell me? I looked at the stack and couldn't answer.

I would recommend that you give your nephew one of the firearms that he would use. He will think of his uncle when he does. You will find joy in watching him use a firearm that means something to you. :)

I already have. He used it to deer hunt until he decided he likes a Sabatti rifle better because it's iron sighted.
