Best caliber for 3d printing? (Except 9mm)

update wow, you are all useless. I like poal but this is kind of pathetic.

..... I live in a country where firearms are highly regulated. Although I've got a firearm license and am planning to buy a rifle of some sort, I'm wondering what sort of caliber to begin with that would be "3d printing friendly". Whether that be replacement parts or a full print project from scratch, anyone here familiar with the 3d printed, distributed defense, type stuff?

9mm is out of the question, although there are some great designs out there (fgc-9) it's difficult to find here and apparently puts you on a watchlist.

And there are otherwise so many calibers to choose from I can't figure it out

My desire would be to hunt small game, probably, but also learn about firearm engineering and have some fun with it.
