Here's all you need
.22 Long Rifle
12 Gauge Shotgun
I have 4 Marlin Model 60 .22 Long rifles, and 4 - NEF 12 gauge shotguns. 1,000's of .22 LR rounds and Hundreds of 12 gauges shells.
All guns are same make and model (Think Spare Parts when TSHTF)
.22's will kill Humans on down to squirrels, 12 guage will take out the heavy stuff (Slugs)
also I have 3 hand pump BB rifles for small game (You dont want to alert your neighbors your killing the dove and squirrels in the neighborhood)
You can use my "Real World" experience to base Your decision if you like. I stand behind my advice.

Quoting: ***DRAGOON*** its a reason you dont hunt deer with.22. .. why do you think that is? the deer might die after a while, but it can run off and be in agony for days before it dies. Same with humans, and they might kill you before they die. that round is useless for other than plinking if you ask me. even 223 is illegal deer round several places, because unless you hit exactly where your supposed to, same might happen there. a 308 delivers the same punch at 600 meters as a 223 at 100 meters, now imagine a 22 Most skirmishes take place within 150 yards. Plenty close for a .22 in the head.
