I like to strike the balance between enough gun for what I'm hunting versuses not too much gun.

I like the .223 for deer and hogs, provided proper bullt type.

I have a 7mm Remington Magnum for the day I finally get to go to Montana for elk.

I carry a .45 ACP for personal protection.

Heck, I even like the 5.56 caliber I carried in the Guard, but hated the FMJ I was forced to use.

Same goes for the 9x19mm NATO round.
