At 75 years old I have shot quite a few , but after reading Cartridges Of The World , darn I dont even have a good start.
 
Instead of asking about how many calibers someone has... i would recommend the 'too many mouths to feed' approach and narrow it down. I have gotten down to 9mm, .38special/.357mag, .223, .30 carbine, and .308, as well as 12 gauge shotgun. With the exception of my great grandfather's Colt 38-40, that's it. Seven Calibers. No offense, but that's my .02.
