My personal favorites in the rifle calibers have been

the .257 and the 284 calibers. This is in the under 30 caliber category. No rhyme or reason for this. I have just had more luck with them in the past than other "smaller" calibers.
In the 30 caliber and above my likes have been many. I have used the 30 GNR,310 GNR, 338 GNR,350 GNR, 378 GNR, 41 GNR, 410 GNR, 416 GNR, 429 GNR, 450 GNR, 475 GNR, and 510 GNR successfully in Africa, Australia and New Zealand so I can't leave them out. My favorite among them for a Contender or Encore have been the 310 GNR and 450 GNR that I used on last years African safari. My 338 GNR and 378 GNR have been my "go to" rifle type caliber cartridges thru the years.

I have a few of my calibers that I haven't used extensively that I should, but there are only a few opportunities to do so. Maybe good Lord willing I will have the time to use some of them. These are the new Falcons, a couple of the Raptors and some of the older cartridges that some of you have used successfully thru the years. Thank goodness I have you guys to do a lot of my load testing and field testing on game, or they would never be used.
