Mine aren't perfectly matched, but I have a custom Rem M7 in 6.5 Creedmoor and a CZ 527 American in 223. That 223 has helped me out a lot and I shoot it at least twice as much as my 6.5.

I still shoot the 6.5 some during the year, though. I don't think you can just practice with one and hunt with one, but a 223 or similar is ideal for working on lots of skill building.

Tikka T3xs in 30-06, 6.5 cm, and 223.... ah I miss the days of $0.28/rd 223. Glad to still have a bunch and be shooting. I also have a Ruger American bolt gun in 22lr that is similar enough to my big game rifles that there is good carry over from practice

Also, I built a 7.62x39 AR upper recently because it was cheaper to get 1k 7.62x39 plus build an upper and get a couple mags, than it is currently just to get a 1k 223/5.56.

Oh, and a dedicated 22lr AR upper.
