Inspiration from a Guns and Ammo article ".22 Trail Gun" sept 08 issue.
Note; not to replace usual sidearm, Emergency item extended stay in woods, Lost ECT..
I always thought that my Rifle and side arm (usually 30.06 and .40) would be
enough. However in retrospect Maybe a little .22 or some other small caliber would be nice for small game. Have in my back pack with a 100 rounds of 22lr and my BuckMark or Wather P22. Maybe even some Shot shells for Grouse and cold weather aiming errors. Obviously It would be used as a survival tool, so maybe a revolver would be more practical for the simple fact of prolonged use without proper cleaning.
Any insight you all might have would be greatly appreciated.
