The perfect "multi-purpose"(hunting, availability of ammo, knockdown power, self/property defense, semi auto fire) weapon in a true SHTF scenario would be something on a .223 platform, whether it be the ultra reliable mini-14, or an AR type.
Hunting- Lighter FMJ loads for small game work just great. Heavier, expansion type bullets work great for deer, or something similiar
Ammo- .223 ammo is still fairly economical(even tho this is changing daily), & we all know about the effectiveness of the .223 round on a human target, just go ask a few of the peg leg Toweliban "fighters" that got on the wrong end of it
A Ruger 10/22 is an awesome gun, no argument, but after all, we are talking about a SHTF scenario, in which case, the "S" just "HTMFF!!!!"
All I'm saying is that I won't be strolling down the streets of a world that looks like something from "The Book of Eli" with my trusty pop can killer
