Calling all hunters: Looking for that "All-Around" round

[SSGSAD]

Don't mean to resurrect an old thread but I didn't want to leave anyone in suspense. I think we're going with 223, maybe 308 in a savage axis. I'm with you on the 243 but he's a bit of a penny pincher and when he saw the price tag on a box of 243 compared to 223 he kinda sat firm. Although oddly enough he's taking a closer look at the AR platform now. I think I'll be able to steer him towards a bold gun in the end though.

Good idea, I was going to say, .308, .243, or .223 ..... .357 lever .....

The only important thing here is that he not exploit the "gun show loophole". I won't be able to sleep tonight if a gun gets into the hands of an unqualified or government approved buyer.

Especially if the rifle he picks looks scary. I am kind of sensitive.

All-around round? I am going with 7.92x33 used in conjunction with a krummlauf device.
