    Default What caliber carbine?

    Hi Guys

    I am looking for some advise, I am in the market for a carbine rifle but I am a bit stuck on the caliber

    There is a lot more calibers to mention but I narrowed it down to these 4

    .22lr
    5.56
    7.62x 39
    7.62x 51

    If there is any caliber that I am missing please correct me

    Kind regards

    .22 and 5.56 would make for the cheapest shooting.
