I'm pretty fond of 6.5's, especially the 6.5 Sweed. But I think the 7x57 would trump it for the heavier bullet's.
I have to go with the 12 guage as the most versatile cartridge. I can shoot birds out of the sky or kill a large animal like a bear.
only at short range, even a long range rifle round can do the job at close range
as long as you don't use varmint grenades, shooting small game even at close range is fine because regular ammo most often will not have mushroomed
Only problem isIt seems pretty clear that the most versatile round is many different things to each of us.
