This question has probably been posted thousands of time, but it is good to bring it up now and then to see the current trend. There are all kinds of reasons of why one may like a particular caliber over all others and everyone's reason is correct. My personal favorite is the .257 Roberts. Here's why: it is extremely accurate in a good rifle, it is easy to reload, with a couple of dies, .257 brass can be readily made from .270 and .30-06 brass, it is extremely effective for long range varminting, and in the hand of a cool shot an accurate rife, and good bullets, it can take most big game.
