I am not really the person to ask about the best gun

to have around the house or in the field. being a dealer and having the chance to try out most of the new guns on the market I would be a bit biased at my choice.
Here are my choices and Kase', mainly because Kase has tried out even more guns than I have. Also my main guy Robert's choices.

Our choice is centerfire rifles.. First Kase's..
Centerfire rifle...the original model 700 BDL in 375 H&H or an older Browning A-Bolt.same caliber. .
The reason?..He has hunted all over the world with me and there were some instances where he didn't have enough gun. But never an instance where he had too much gun.
Hunting shotgun...A Beretta Xtrema 2
Self-defense shotgun..Remington 870 Tactical.
Rimfire rifle...Hunting...Ruger 77/22 all weather 22 magnum'
Rimfire plinking...HK model...416 22 LR
Handgun...hunting..Dan Wesson 445 SM
Handgun plinking...Ruger MK 2
Handgun self defense..Sig 320 or 1911

Roberts (my main guy)
Centerfire rifle for hunting..Mossberg MVP..223
Shotgun...hunting..S/S 12 gauge ( a good one)
Shotgun for self defense..same as above
Rimfire rifle.. hunting..Henry lever action...22 Magnum
Rimfire rifle for plinking...same as above
Handgun for hunting...Custom Silverhawk in 429 GNR
Handgun for self defense...Star PD 45

GNR guns
Centerfire rifle..Hunting...older Ruger #1..45-70 S model
centerfire rifle..for plinking... older Remington model 700 22-250 Improved.
Rimfire rifle for hunting...CZ model 512 22 Magnum
Rimfire rifle for plinking...Ruger 10-22
Handgun for hunting..TC G-2 in 41 GNR
Handgun for self defense..longslide in 10mm
Handgun for plinking...Peters Stahl longslide 22 LR
Shotgun for hunting...Ruger Red Label...English stock..20 gauge.
Shotgun for self defense..Mossberg 590..12 gauge..8 rounds

There you go. Some that don't make much sense but if the schnitzle hits the fan it won't really matter.
I would really like to see Jim Taylor's and John Taffin's choices. Hint hint hint.
