I'm going to be getting a small caliber rifle soon for hunting, mostly rabbit and squirrels. What do you guys recommend for the most accurate and reliable rifle for this purpose? I'm not looking for a tricked out tack driver and don't want anything very heavy as I will be using it primarily in the field. Would .22 even be the best caliber? I've heard some good things about .17 HMR but don't really know anything about it. The only readily available small caliber rifle I can think of off hand is the Ruger 10/22 but there has to be many out there. Semi Automatic is not a concern either...lever action would be just fine...basically anything except single shot.
