I would define obscure as not easily found at your local emporium or not chambered on a regular basis by our sporting manufacturers.

Just starting working with a 6mm 30-30 AI which is very obscure by definition. After two trips to the range and once out in the field the decision to take it deer/antelope is already been made. If obscure means to you "not able to buy ammo at Walmart" then my

.260 Rem.
.32 Win Spec.
.284 Winchester

My faves, in no particular order:

6.5 Gibbs (my sheep rifle and small bore of choice)
470 Mbogo (the ultimate practical stopper)
416 Taylor (increasing in popularity!, awesome little-big-bore)
8mm Rem Mag (included based on posts above, not really that obscure)

Cheers,
Canuck
