with canned, scoped .22 unit in AR. we'll SEE who's starving and who's AOK at the end of it. U can sit there and WATCH me cooking up the meat every day.
Dumbass. if you are so WORRIED about running out of .22's, CARRY MORE, shoot straighter, stalk closer, HAVE a suppressor, and CACHE more .22 ammo. 1000 rds of .22lr will feed any family for decades,man. Even if you CAN'T stalk any closer than 50m.
If you don't get it now, you never will. It's called 'diversifying your skills'.
I carry lots of .22LR when I backpack and a MkII, even back on college trips where they said 'bring no guns'. You could go on specific, organized backpacking trips to fullfill your PT credits. On the college trips I just kept the MkII stashed in my pack.
While backpacking I usually carry a stainless 4-3/4" MkII, 200 rounds or more of CCI Stinger, at least 50 rounds of CB Long, and a few rounds of Eley .22LR tracer ammo.
Yeah, and I'd bring a slingshot. Did I also mention that I also usually bring some homemade steel arrow heads (for field made wooden arrows) a frog gig, and other odds and ends?
However, to practice your primitive skills is something that many of us have done but your lack of real world experience shows that in the woods, without your guns, you're toast (having no real experience, you're probably just as toast with them).
I actually backpack, you don't GK. There is a difference.
