Default calibre of choice

I beleive the calibre depends on what and where you will hunt. If you hunt alot of bush I believe you should stick to a 30 cal. but if you are shooting more open area pick something flatter, faster shooting.My 13 year old son 115lb son shoots my parker-hale 30/06 and doesn't even flinch.He will shoot 10 rounds in one hour without a jacket on and shot 2 mule does in 3 standing shots with no complaint. I personally shoot a Browning x bolt with 150 grain shells and believe that the 300 will do it all with very little difference in recall from my parker hale 30/06.I have shot elk,moose and deer and nothing has ever walked away. I am only telling you my opinion.
