I agree except for one..

22 rim fire
12 gauge
30-06
375 H&H

The reason I chose the 06 over the 270 is that the ballistics for an 06 is very close to the ballistics for the 375 so you don't have to over think things when changing rifles

Since many of the posters seemed to ignore the part about "rifles for big game hunting" LOL, I would submit my selections for the "best 4 guns for hunting" to:

.270 Win
.416 Rem Mag
12 GA Shotgun
.22 LR.

And an unlimited number of handguns for hunting, plinking, self-defense and because life is just too boring with only four rifles.

I better ad several shotguns as well.
