I was talking with my old friend RCMerchant (BELA) tonight and mentioned that I wanted to start a thread about Westerns I like... and he encouraged me to do so, SO, here 'tis.  What five WESTERNS do you like, or, LOVE?   
Here are mine: 

MY DARLING CLEMENTINE (1946)
THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY (1966) 
STAGECOACH (1939) 
THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE (1962)
SHANE (1953) 
If you want to view paradise . . . simply look around and view it!

Trevor

The Hellions (the first African Western)
Ride The High Country
High Noon
The Magnificent Seven (both versions)
The Wild Bunch
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Rev. Powell

When I think favorite Western, I think Leone and/or Eastwood. I'm going with my favorites, not looking for variety.

THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY
ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST
FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE
UNFORGIVEN
DEAD MAN
I'll take you places the hand of man has not yet set foot...

Trevor

I wish Sony would release The Hellions on DVD.
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Silverado
Big Jake
Pale Rider

Oh-and I have a soft spot (some would say in my head) for anything with Hopalong Cassidy.

The Long Riders
High Plains Drifter
The Searchers

Last two might be a bight cheaty since they're mixed genre (horror western).

A Fistful of Dollars
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
They call me Trinity

Young Guns

But honestly...the list could go on and on.
