The parameters specify you are alone & only have what you can carry.
Hunting a huge animal with a 45-70 or other heavy rifle with equally heavy ammo could be foolish, waste precious limited supply ammo, & draw attention to you.
Self-defence would be a priority against predatory animals & two legged gangs, survival would be #1.
My solution/suggestion would be a suppressed & scoped lever action, or bolt action rifle in 22 magnum. You could easily carry 1000 rounds of 22mag in a knapsack, Survival Lilly's AP01-S knife & be off to a good start. Being incognito helps & only use your rifle to harvest food locally & fire on two legged creatures from far away.
Shot placement is paramount, 22mag FMJ HP's will take most small to medium game, suppressed is even better so all manner of critters cannot spot your hidden location.
