only have 3 centerfires... What would they be?
for me?
I think I would have
Varminter - So in my case, a 223, but if I was to build the "perfect" one, it would be a 6 ppc
Mid Range fallow, spotlight for bigger animals, etc rifle - I reckon the 6.5x47 lapua fits this role well, wouldn't you say?
Top end, big farking animal, still not big enough for sambar rifle - 358 norma mag, 185-320 odd grain projies suits me just dandy.
So what would you blokes pick?

Yes Buff that was my first thought but it's the 6mm and the Cheytac that still need to be there!

If you can only have 3 rifles, I'd try to stick with readily available off-the-shelf calibres.
.223
.308
and probably a .338 something or other.
