How many calibers do you keep in stock? Which will be the next that you add?

[u/Flat-Dark-Earth]

1. 22 LR
   
2. 223/5.56
   3.38/357
   
3. 7.62x39
   
4. 6.5x55
   
5. 6.5 CM
   
6. 308/7.62x51

12. 458 WM
    
13. 470NE
    
14. 9mm
    
15. 12g

Looking to add something in the .25 to 6mm range, a 7mm and a 303.

[u/LumberjackCDN]

Oof, alot im but Im a store haha so that might be cheating lol.

In my personal safe i have

.22lr, .223 7mm mag 7mm Backcountry (which i might sell, im not sure yet, i kinda want a 45-70 instead) 20 gauge And of course a 12 gauge.

[u/GasMan1021 → u/LumberjackCDN]

Why sell the back country? Curious to hear some info on this one as i dont know anyone who has one yet.

[u/LumberjackCDN → u/GasMan1021]

I like my tikka 7mm mag, and my 7mm mag is all decked out with a vx5hd and custom dial. The back country isnt very different from it other than my weatherby is light and has the 20" barrel, which is nice in the woods, but i dont need to shoot over 3000 fps at deer that are 20-40 yards away. Buuut i do have 15 boxes of berger on hand that i won with it. So like ammo security is nice lol

[u/GasMan1021 → u/LumberjackCDN]

Yeah id keep it until the ammo is gone haha hard to not justify using it when ammo is so available for you.

[u/Lumindan → u/LumberjackCDN]

45-70 levers are hella cool just saying 😉

[u/LumberjackCDN → u/Lumindan]

I know we have a marlin trapper in right now and its hard not to bring it home

[u/jimmythemortician]

.22LR, .223, .308, 9mm, 12ga

That's all.

[u/Alpha_Whiskey327 → u/jimmythemortician]

Yeah. I started out like this. NATO rounds work for me because I could buy bulk fmj for plinking. From this list I added 357 and 44 mag levers for space cowboy funsies. This will always be my core list I think. Always available, cross compatible, friends all shoot the same plus their own speciality on top but all keep this menu at minimum.

[u/Flat-Dark-Earth → u/jimmythemortician]

You’ve got the basics covered. Nothing else you’d like to add?

[u/Relevant_Diver_3228 → u/Flat-Dark-Earth]

.500 s&w magnum. I have one it is so much fun to shoot. I have a bighorn armoury lever rifle. Looking at your list you like big calibers so you should look into getting one.

[u/jimmythemortician → u/Flat-Dark-Earth]

Not really, I have a couple others but nothing that I would consider "in stock".

[u/holdencaulfield1983 → u/jimmythemortician]

Same, just the common ones for me.

[u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS]

.22 mag, 9mm, 7.62x39, 7.62x54r, 12g

Next would probably be 308 but I feel like I have that covered with my mosin, love the dang thing she's my baby

[u/Iokua_CDN → u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS]

Still a couple 308 semis out there! Could be a neat little  niche for you to own a 308!

[u/GasMan1021]

25 Creedmoor. Love a 25 cal and in a short action just makes sense.

[u/Flat-Dark-Earth → u/GasMan1021]

I’m currently debating 25CM vs 6CM. I was a little concerned there may be too much overlap with the 6.5 that I already have, and rifle options weren’t as numerous at the time.

Which 25CM rifle are you considering?

[u/GasMan1021 → u/Flat-Dark-Earth]

Probably just going to rebarrel my Rem 700 308 honestly. Only ones I see are Fierce, new Savage 110 and Weatherby 307 and I am not interested in any of those setups right now. In the end it is just cheaper to rebarrel anyways.

[u/ThePoeticJester]

30 carbine, 3006, 6.5jap, 6.5x55, 6.5x52 carcano, 22lr, 7.5swiss, 7.5MAS, 7.62x39, 7.62x54r, 7.62x38r, 7.62x25, 303, 8mm Mauser, 9mm, 45auto, 38S&W, 12ga, I think thats it right now?

So many to add... so many haha 7.7jap, or maybe 7.35Carcano

[u/Borealbound → u/ThePoeticJester]

A man of taste 

[u/GreenMan165 → u/ThePoeticJester]

Damn you have some fun calibres in there, definitely go 7.7 Jap or 7.35 Carcano, you must... for the preservation of historical rifle shooting!

Also that means you own an 1895 Nagant do you? That's sweet!

[u/ThePoeticJester → u/GreenMan165]

Yeah I do! Been working on handloads for it if ai could ever get range time

Before Christmas I will buy a 45-70, a 6mm, and specifically a mares leg preferably in 44mag.

[u/Conscious_Bid_8762 → u/Unlikely_sniper]

Honestly my mares Legg and my Henry are the two rifles I regret. It’s fun to shoot the first time.. but in reality it’s useless and I’d sell mine cheap

I’ve got 4 but likely if I added one it would be replacing my 30-06 with something bigger - 300 win mag possibly. Most of my hunting and fun are 22lr and 12 gauge…. I’ve just realized I might be a fudd lmao

[u/Status_Ticket5044 → u/DimGrows]

If you're not yelling at kids to get off your lawn, you're not yet a fudd.

[u/Iokua_CDN → u/Status_Ticket5044]

I mean the dang kids should stay off my lawn without me needing to tell them! I say, back in my day...  uh oh. ... it's already got me!!!

[u/Borealbound → u/DimGrows]

My dad has a .300 WM BAR, it’s crazy watching those big shells get ejected from it.

If by the grace of god we ever get pistols back I’d pick up a 9mm. Otherwise I can’t see myself getting anything else. Except more of everything in the calibers I have already

Next I would like 416 Rigby, and maybe another long range cartridge to reach further then my 308win, would also like 556 but in Chinada there are not many things left legal in that SuUupeEeeer devaAastAting cartridge.... And 30-06 with a m1 garand

[u/GreenMan165]

.22LR, 12 Gauge, 7.62x39, 7.62x54r

It's been that way for quite a while, used to have 9mm, .303, and .410. Those calibres may/will come back again in the future. My next calibre is planned to be a .308, if I don't fold and end up with one of those silly 9mm bolt guns first.

1. 7.62x39

2. 12 Ga

For commonly used firearms. I have some smatterings of 20ga and older European cartridges and .303 and such as well, but my top five by a wide margin are about as basic as it gets, and they're all I stock in bulk. At some point I'll add a belted magnum, but not 100% sure what, yet.

[u/zombie-yellow11]

I have a fair amount of 7.62×39 (spam can) and I will probably buy a bunch of non-corrosive 7.62×54R in the near future for my SVT-40.

I have .22LR for my TM22 and 9mm for my two pistols.

I also have 7.62×25 for a Tokarev I sold before the freeze... I wanted to get another but alas, I couldn't find one in time.

I have some waterfowl steel pellets 3in 12ga shells for cobra chicken hunting.

[u/Milkbagistani]

I started simple with the traditional Canadian lineup of 22lr, 12 ga, 7.62x39.

Then expanded to NATO rounds of 9mm, 5.56 x 45, 7.62 x 51.

Then I started playing in the milsurp world and things got spendy quickly with 8mm Mauser, 303 British, 6.5 Carcano, 6.5 Dutch, 7.62 x 54r.

Maybe I should buy an Arisaka and a Swede Mauser to complete the expensive 6.5 ammo lineup On the other hand I am almost fully equipped to LARP a game of Axis and Allies.

[u/Doogie-Howser]

That's all in my short list!!!!! Considering adding a 223, a 9mm, a 6.5 creedmoor, and maybe a 44mag in the future.  I don't currently reload so everything has to be decently affordable to shoot

6 but I can only use 5. I have a bunch of 308 with nothing to shoot it from. I also don't have a purpose for it either, so it's not a priority. I'll probably get 2 more 22s before a 308. Hahaha.

[u/WarheadVideogameDev]

.308, .30-06, .22lr, 9mm, .45ACP(.455 Webley technically but I mainly just buy .45ACP, hand loading the .455 can be fun tho), .41 long colt, .357 mag, 7.62x39, .223/5.56, 12 gauge, 30-30, 7.62x54, 6.5cm and I think that’s it.

I have too many guns.

10mm, 9mm, .22wmr, 20ga, 12ga, .410, 22-250, 308, 338LM, and 17hmr. Then a couple oddball cals like 41 colt and 11.3x36 gasser
