Well spoken !

Rossi 44mag lever action,shoot cast subs and 240g of full power goodness.

I’m loving the diversity shown in everyone’s different choice here! It’s bloody good to see, because how boring would life be if we all just went for the same thing....

And just to clarify, I’m not a mole working for you know who.

303 with a nice Scope and a set of swing off mounts.

This.

My 223 is great for wallabys and goats but my 6.5 is great for deer and thar, so if i could only pick one id prob go in the middle and go back to what i started with, the 243. Can do it all at sensible ranges.

Well I'm going to go off the deep end and say my 338 lm.
Full carbon so not to heavy to carry and can do it all at pretty much any range.
Just so expensive to feed.....
But possibly overkill on bunnies ... Maybe...

yeah but it would be worth it if you can knock one over at 3km

BSA Majestic in 7x57 but seeing as i dont have one yet i would settle for my 6x45 Majestic

In all honesty roktoy it does surprisingly little damage. Probably because the animals I've shot with it haven't really been at ranges that justify such a rifle if I am honest. I have yet to recover a bullet as they tend to keep going through the animal , the tree it was standing in front of , the tree behind that one etc etc...
