Just for fun, and to challenge the idea of the .30-06 Springfield being the best "all-rounder" cartridge for big game in North American, let's see if we can narrow down an alternative.
Someone wants one rifle, chambered in one cartridge, to hunt all legal big game species in North America.
You cannot choose the .30-06, so what do you recommend? And if you have a good reason, what is it?
I'd recommend the .375 Ruger. The reason is that dead is dead, and it'll make it dead. (Providing the shooter, yadda yadda yadda)
But the real reason is that the more demand for the cartridge, the higher the levels of production, which means it gets cheaper....for fools like me who have one and actually want to shoot it more.
So what's you choice?
