Go-Between Cartridge

[7.62 Nato]

Between the .243 Winchester, and a .300 Winchester mag.? Uhm, .308 Winchester !

Probably a .270, or on the larger end a 30-06. But a .270 really is a do all cartridge. Can use it for varmints and coyotes, also does deer well, and can do elk (my wife's first elk was with a .270). It is a great middle range cartridge.

45/70.

I'd go with .308 Winchester because it falls nicely in the middle, ammo is abundant/affordable, and it's NATO.

Look for 7-08 ,280 , or 270 winny. Great thin skined calibers and black bear. Easier on the shoulder and with the 7-08 a short action rifle with a shorter barrel.

Hate to be a spoil sport but you could just down load your .300 Win Mag to gain versatility. I am currently working up a 110 grain TTSX load for mine.
But really whats the fun in that when you could get a new toy.
So add a vote for the .280 REM.

What about the 260 Remington?

 

[TexasPatriot.308]

I dont think the .243 can handle everthing in America, but the middle would be a 7mm-08 or 7x 57 mauser.

FAL in 270 sounds like an interesting endeavor
