.22 & .243 or .223 & .308?!?

This forum is tempting me to spend more money. Never really considered a shotty coz I reckon it's range is so limited (not bagging them in any way, just my newbness).
So possibly a shotty for close work, 17hmr for little teddy bear like things to about 150-200m and a (.243, .270, .308, 6.5x55) for bigger stuff?
Honestly, the more I learn the harder it gets to make choices....

Bloody hell Chronos,
How does your credit card sleep at night knowing you are soooo under gunned and have such gaping gaps visible
I think the only way is up and much wider for your cals

Of course if you had to clean a lot of them you could just set up rods and leave them all set up. And actually the cost of doing that actually makes sense!
you have just encouraged me to expend some cash at the LGS
Good luck cleaning a 22lr, 223 and a 308 with the same cleaning rod.

I must have lots of luck. Or I am using the wrong words. Different tips same rod…..for my 22 cals and .30 cals.
With a collection like you have you could need more gear than me!
So where am I going wrong ?

I see you've got a bit of a collection in your signature there.
You could always move on a few of them (if you can bare to part with them ) and get the 223 and 30-06.
Swap the Ruger .308 for the 30-06 and the .243 for the .223? Your 25-06 will cover you for what the .243 did obviously.

However,, my DREAMTIME fantasy was for the AKKAR triple barrel piece to have a similar combination to 12g / .223 / 30/06 all in the one F/Arm
