Then this is horrible advice.
We should take experience into consideration with our recommendations.
That being said, I think doggin was just joking around as I would do. But this is the problem that I have with all the people that recommend the .17HMR at the drop of a hat to anyone asking.
223 & 243 during the day, 22mag on night outings. That 223 is a dream gun, Savage really has some accurate guns out now. 223 is the most used caliber in this arena & the shells available in stores is always vast.
I figured id do it this way, instead of asking what caliber to get. I can get a better idea of what everyone else is using and make a decision. Think im just going to get the Stevens 200 in 22 250 and be happy!
I should also say that I ain't mad,perturbed or upset in the slightest with (doggincoyotes), he was just cracking a joke. I get it. Just using it as an example, we have people here that would have said such a thing and meant it.
Hope you ain't mad at me doggin
Back on topic, I use a .223 mostly but I also have a 6x45 and a .308 that I use on occasion. Got a 6.8SPC that should be here in a few months........I'll carry that too.
