Makasi, MRA Renegade, and the Canuck (or a real M4 if you’re dropping the other guns). If you got the renegade in .223 you could share cartridges between that and the Makasi. They’re both multi-cal guns as well so you could always change them if you buy additional parts.
300 BLK is a good cartridge but without a real suppressor you’d probably wouldn’t really benefit as much. I think there’s a case where you’d benefit from additional stopping power, if you’re using it as a bush gun for hunting at short to moderate distances. If it’s a range gun only, i think you’d be better off saving some money on ammunition by going .223 / 5.56.
12 gauge if some kind is a must have for a collection for sure. A bolt action is great but not sure if you need to drop the $$$ on a ruger precision. If that’s your bag you could absolutely go for it. Some kind of .22 would be great too - you could build a quality long range precision .22 bolt action rifle for less and practice that same discipline for cheaper.
