Ken,

If you already have a .25-06 Sendero, why get another .25-06? However, you already have two .308's, so why get a .30-06? Can the .30-06 really do that much more than the .308? Why not get something like a .300 Win Mag. or .338 Win Mag just in case you decide to pursue something bigger than whitetails. Better yet, how about a .300 Ultra Mag or .338 Ultra Mag. That might spice life up a little. Me, I have no desire to purchase an ultra mag anything, but that is just me. You also will not catch me purchasing a new rifle in a cartridge that I already own unless there is something really special about that gun. Now, with shotguns, I own 6 12 ga. guns, but most are used for different purposes (e.g., sporting clays, trap, skeet, upland hunting, waterfowl hunting). Until I have every niche filled, I'll be buying guns that fit into certain niches before buying a gun to fill a niche that I already have filled.
