What’s your favorite cartridge?

After owning the 7mm rem mag, 280 rem, 7mm-08, 270 win, 6.5 CM, 300 wsm, 270 wsm, 243 win, 280 AI, 30-06, 300 weatherby, 22-250, 223 rem, 6mm CM, 22 CM, 308 win, 300 savage and now the venerable 284 Winchester I would have to say that I will not part with my 6 Creed or my 284 win. Favorite...? 284 Win. I would use a variation of the 284 win for everything!
 
My go everywhere gun is without a doubt my Sako 22 250 heavy barrel varmint and coyote slayer....Purchased in the mid 90s and topped with a Leupold Varmint long range and has taken its place riding shotgun every time i head to the mountains...when a friend goes and I put her in the back seat I know she is saying what the hell cant your crappy shooting buddy ride back there instead of me...LOL...For elk it has to be my Rem Sendero 300 Ultra Mag....years ago my buddies nick named the gun KABOOM...elk just give up and fall over dead at just the sight of the gun...Ok maybe I have to pull the trigger but then they do for sure...180 gr Accubond 96gr Reloders....3250 plus...and last but not least I love my Hills Country 280 Ackley topped with a VH 6 HD ...rolled its first elk last year. 280 yards on a full run left to right shooting a Hornady 162 ELDx..oh ya I lead the bull 4 feet...3 cartwheels and the bull was dead...and then theres my Dads 1952 Rem 721 30 06...ok Ill stop now...LOL
Lol its ok to keep adding🤣 i absolutely love my ruger 77/22 22 Hornet, shimmed bolt, different trigger,hammer & free floated
 
My favourite has always been the 300WM, but the 338WM and 338-416 Rigby Improved 45° are my favourite too.
The other is my custom Win Model 70 stainless in 375 Weatherby…it hammers everything it touches and was the first custom I built and took to Alaska on Kodiak bears. **** does it work very very well.

Cheers.
I've been pondering turning my Browning Abolt stainless stalker in 375 H&H in 375 Weatherby, I have a 378 Weatherby, there is no substitute for HP 💖
