After our evening hunt, we were just sitting around when someone asked a question if we could only pick one ammo brand, which would it be? The conversation went on way longer than it should have! So now it's my turn to ask. What’s your favorite ammunition brand that you’d always choose?

I can see how the discussion went long! To start with there has to be a separation of types of ammo, I.e. rimfire, center-fire rifle, center-fire handgun, shotgun etc. After that it needs further breakdown by usage. Range/practice ammo, self defense ammo, hunting ammo are all different and while Winchester white box or Monarch might be okay for a day at the range I don't want either in my carry weapons. Yeah, that question opens a big can of worms.
I lean to SK and Lapua for hunting and target rimfire and whatever is cheapest for plinking and practice. Remington Core-Lokt has proven to be a dependable and consistent performer in field at less than 200 yards but I don't think I would stake a guided elk or moose hunt on a box. Winchester AA reigns on the skeet range but falls short in the field. Yeah this is a bit of a loaded question.
Let me ask you a question; what were you hunting when the question was first asked?
