1. A rifle is always better than a pistol for outdoor survival
2. Most game that matters is small game.
3. A .22 long rifle is better because of weight of ammo, utility, accuracy, and quieter

Ammo has almost become a liability for a .22. The great Obama ammo shortage still hasn’t ended for .22.

There are some nice .357 rifles available. Not one thing wrong about a rifle and and a sidearm, using the same ammo.

Yep. Properly placed .22LR will take everything from small rodents to deer.

Throw a grasshopper onto the water and fish with a .22LR

.357 Mag. rounds per pound: 30.77

.22LR rounds per pound: 133.33
