Which cartridge do you like so much, you have multiple firearms for it?

I have the following duplicates in my collection:
22-250, I have a tang safety Ruger M77 that I was given at 12 years old. I acquired a 1-9 twist Cooper a few years ago.
7mm Rem Mag- a M700 Sendero and a Ruger.
308- a M700 LTR and a Sig 716.
40 cal- at least 4, but the favorite is a Sig P239 SAS
45- a Springfield XDS and a Sig P220
 
Two 223 rem ( three if you count 223ai)
Two 3006, model 742 and a stick shift
Two 6.5 Needmoor, one stick shift and one gas gun
Until Two years ago I had five 300wm rifles. One is a now 30 Nosler, one is 264 win mag. So I'm down to three.

Oh,
Four 9mm Parabellum.
 
Mine is more of a favorite caliber. Although 264wm is my favorite cartridge i have more combined 26cal firearms (12 iirc) of 6.5gren, 6.5creed, 260rem, 6.5prc and 264wm. 30cals are a very close 2nd.
all but the 264wm is in an AR config. i might try a glfa, remove the 300wm or 7rm barrel and do a 264wm AR. for a grand what's there to lose! i've read some are problematic and some operate fine? a noreen in the 2nd low cost AR xlr frame cost wise to try as iirc you can get an upper receiver for it?
 
Oh...You brought up AR's.
I have a Seekins AR Pistol with 2-Uppers (Both in 223 Rem).
One is a real shorty...7 or 7.5"
The other one is a smidgen under 16"
I have shot and hit steel beyond 1100 yards with the longer barrel. 69 grain Smacks of all things :)
Both 7T Rock Barrels.
Then, I remembered another rear grip XP in 223 Rem.
I guess that makes Five 223's...

Not counting .22 LR's (we should all have multiples of those), I have a pair of 30-06's and a pair of 257 Roberts. Each in bolt action and Encore pistol. I loved them so much in rifles, I thought I'd better have them in pistols too! Beyond that and a few 9mm's, 40's & 45's, I try not to have the same calibers in bottle neck rounds if I can help it. I like playing with new calibers if I can! Though I'm thinking some leverguns in 357 or 44 Mag to compliment my revolvers couldn't possibly be a bad idea.
 
The list is pretty long and hopefully I can remember them all.

22LR
223 The most at 9, 3 AR's, 2 Mini 14, and 4 bolt guns.
22-250
6 Dasher
6 Creedmoor
6mm Rem
243 AI
6.5 Creedmoor
6.5prc
6.5saum
6.5-300wm
7-300wm
7STW
308
30-06
300wsm
300wm
30-8mm
30-28 Nosler
300 Norma Imp
338 Baer
9mm
10mm
44mag

If you include airguns, shotguns and muzzleloaders then it would include: 25pcp, 28ga, 20ga, 12ga, 10ga, .40, .45, .50.
 
If by what you mean is what I currently have:

.22LR (multiple rifles and pistols)
.22WMR (2 Rifles)
9mm (2 Pistols)
.45ACP (3 Pistols)
.280 Rem (2 Rifles)
.30-06 (3 Rifles)
20 Ga (3 Shotguns)
16 Ga (2 Shotguns)
12 Ga (5 Shotguns)
.50 Cal (3 Muzzleloaders)
 
Multiple firearms in the same caliber=I keep multiples of 7mm-08 and .30-06.
Partly since I share with my kids and some I use as loaners in case someone needs to borrow a rifle. For example have a youth model marlin 7mm-08 that my kids all
Started with and quickly grew out of-and the girls with small frames preferred a Winchester feather lite M70 to my rem 700. The married daughter took hers when she moved out but we still have a couple more in waiting-
I keep 2 Winchester sx-2 12 gauges, identical. Love the first so much that I bought a second before they quit making them.
I also have duplicates of 16 gauge and 20
Gauges as upland guns-again, I share with my kids. . .
