I hear a Queen song playing somewhere.... must be that new Chase commercial again...
I guess to play along, I'd say that if there is one caliber that I'd really like... it woudl acctually be a gauge. I'd like to be the first guy on the block to have a 24 or 32 gauge double gun. The 24 for doves on days I'm feeling brash, and the 32 for pen raised quail when I'm feeling too good for a 28, but not good enough for a .410.

.22 - Small game
6.5x55 Swede - Smaller Big Game (Deer, Goats, etc)
.35 Whelen - Big Game (Moose, elk, etc)
.375 H&H - It's a classic, what can I say
And...throw in a .257 Bob, 7x57 Mauser, 300 Savage, and a Remington 7600 in .308

I'm pretty well set, couple 22's, couple deer rifles, couple shotguns, 22 pistol, 357 revolver.... If I could just dream up another gun to have it would be a vintage model 99 featherweight carbine, .308, clip fed, with folding tang peep sight. Then I would really have a hell of a time deciding what to take in the woods with me on any given day.

RE: Your Perfect Rifle Arsenol?
Just to get by I need
four good varmint rifles - 2 in .204 Ruger and 2 in 22-250
four decent Big game rifles 1 in .300 Win mag, .260 Rem, .270 WSM, .308 in various weights and configurations.
at least one auto loader 12 ga. and one auto 20 ga.
and a whole gaggle of "in betweens" to fill in all the gaps.

Perfect arsenal?
How about this for a start: http://juliaauctions.net/auctions/233/div_catalog_233.asp
Somebody died with more and better toys than I'll ever have.
