    If you bug out 7.62 or .303 would be roughly 5kg for about 200 rounds. Lots of weight to carry

    5.56 would be half that (2.5kg for 200) weight or double the amount.

    .22 would be about 1500 for the same weight.

    9mm weighs almost the same as 5.56

    Shotgun you need a Venter trailer

    But this is all logistics. Sometimes logistics get in the way of a great idea.

    Or a couple of Sherpas.

    Seriously, I have seen how well a 15/22 performs over 300 meter. Nit super accurate, but I would not stand still and try my luck. Would make a very good option especially out to 150-200meters
