Currently I have 22, 38, 357, 45acp and shoot all of them in some sort of half hazard rotation. Thinking of adding 32 or 327 this year and then maybe 9.
 
.38 Special, .357 Mag, .44 Mag, .45 ACP, .45 Colt, .454 Casull, .460 S&W Mag, .45/70, .480 Ruger, .500 JRH, .500 Linebaugh, and .500 S&W Mag soon...

I believe that’s it for now.

Oh, and I have a .475 Maximum being built...

.38 Spl, .357 Mag, .41 Mag, .44 Mag.

I almost never shoot the .38, and only shoot .357 every month or two. The .41 and .44s get almost weekly outings.
 
I currently have (1) .22LR/.22Mag, (5) .32-20, (1) .38 spl, (3) .357 mag, (1) .41 Long Colt, (2) .45 Colt, (1) .45 ACP/Colt.The .41 I have not fired. It recently returned from the Coltsmith and I am acquiring dies & materials to load. It will be my first heel-base bullet and strictly black powder gun.

22LR, 32 S&W, 32 S&W Long, 32-20, 38 S&W, 38 Special, 357 Mag, 44-40, 44 Special, 44 Mag (well hardly ever really, mostly 44 Sp), 45 ACP, and 45 Colt.

I think that's it, none of that modern high powered stuff for me.
 
A few .22 LRs, a .32 H&R, a couple of .38 Specials, a couple of .357 Mags, a .41 Mag, a .44 Mag, and a .45 Colt. They all get "used," except mostly the .32 H&R is "used" to carry behind my right hip when I'm outside working around our place here - I seldom shoot it. I probably get the most shooting (and handloading) pleasure out of the .41 Mag or the .45 Colt.:)

22lr, 38 special, 357 magnum, 44 special, 44 magnum, 45acp and here shortly 45LC. In the past I've have 41 mag and 500 mag as well.
 
I have revolvers in .22LR, .22 Magnum, .38 Special, .357 Magnum, .44 Special, and .45 Colt. Pretty conventional calibers. Also have had then in .32 H&R Magnum and .41 Magnum; a bit more unconventional!
 
.22LR, .38 Special, .357 Magnum and .45 Colt.
I would like a revolver in 9mm but it’s not a priority.
 
I have revolvers in seven different calibers (22, 32, 9mm, 38, 41, 44, and 45).

I have revolvers chambered in 15 different cartridges. (22 RF, 22 Mag, 32-20, 32 S&WL, 32 H&R, 32 Fed, 9x19, 38 Special, 357 Mag, 41 Mag, 44 Special, 44 Magnum, 45 ACP, 45 Colt, and 460 S&W Mag)

Edit: Correction, 16 cartridges. Add 32 S&W to the above list.

.357Mag.

Considering adding .327 and 10mm...would also like to get a .475Linebaugh and .454Casull. We will see...lot of irons in the fire.
 
22 rimfire
22 long rifle
22 mag
.32swl
.327fm
.38 spl
.357mag
.38sw

Repeats on a few of those...especially 22lr. Good thing you didn’t ask revolver rounds I reload for... add in about another dozen that fit these same guns.
 
Handgun

.30 Carbine - revolver
.30 Herrett - single shot
.32ACP - semi
.32 S&W - revolver
.32 S&W Long - revolver
.32 H&R Magnum - revolver
.38 S&W - revolver
.38 Special - revolver
.357 Magnum - revolver
9mm Parabellum - semi
.40 S&W - semi
.44 Colt - revolver
.44 Special - revolver

And .22LR of course in revolvers and semis
 
.44 Mag - Ruger SBH 7 1/2 barrel with dragoon trigger guard and stock grips. Shoots great and doesn't bust my knuckle.
.45 Colt - Smith 625 Mountain Gun - I freaking love this gun
.45 Colt/.45 ACP - Lipsey's Ruger Flattop - Trim and sexy and very accurate.

They all get shot a lot.
 
I looked at a 480 Ruger today
.44 Mag - Ruger SBH 7 1/2 barrel with dragoon trigger guard and stock grips. Shoots great and doesn't bust my knuckle.
.45 Colt - Smith 625 Mountain Gun - I freaking love this gun
.45 Colt/.45 ACP - Lipsey's Ruger Flattop - Trim and sexy and very accurate.

They all get shot a lot.

Does the Lipsey's Ruger Flattop shoot well with both the 45 colt and the 45acp rounds?
 
.22 Mag, .32 Long, .32 Mag, .32-20, .38-200, .38 S&W, .38 Spl, .357 Mag, .41 Mag, .44 Spl, .44 Mag, .45 ACP, .45 Colt.
 
It's true then, what I suspected of so many of you. How do you sleep at night knowing of the gaps in your basic battery? What will you do, how will you handle it when the situation just calls for the .455 Eley or the 32 S&W, and you must face the embarrassment of admitting you don't have one?

Sometimes I find myself making do. The opportunity calls for a head shot on a squirrel or a rabbit, and the ideal weapon might be an early S&W or Colt target .22, but the one on my hip happens to be in .45 Colt. Makes little difference really unless you just had your heart set on squirrel head stew.
