338 Sherman for barrel life and energy on target too. It's an efficient cartridge that's extremely versatile and doesn't require a long... -

With the cartridges you have and the boltface you have currently I would lean toward a 30 caliber such as the 30-06 with one of the...

KISS 270 win or 280 rem. Both will work nicely on black bear or deer. Excellent for deer out to 500. If you want to complicate it a bit...

Ringing the 280 AI bell again as well as the 6.5-284 Norma. Both would be excellent long action standard bolt face cartridges.

Call me old fashioned. Wouldn’t a 20” fluted barrel in 270win be the perfect start. Was the king for over 95years.

.280 AI IMO. Not a barrel burner, very efficient, brass lasts many reloads, and inherently accurate. Wide range of bullets to load...

25-06 and don't look back! Fun cartridge and an easy switchover. I've always liked quarter bores myself.

280ai is one of the most efficient non-magnum calibers available. If it’s a LA, non-mag bolt face, and intended for big game...

This was my exact thinking! I have two 25-06s and absolutely love them both, and now that I am set up to reload and the Sherman’s have...

Another .25-06 vote. Mild recoil, flat trajectory, fun to shoot & more than effective enough for deer & black bears. No modification of...

I don't see any 30cals on the list of what you have, and you said you'd be open to a 300WM... so I'd vote that or a 30-06AI. That keeps...
