maybe 22lr is more plentiful than 22wmr?Why do people always say .22lr for a bug out / shtf gun? The only rational argument i hear is that the ammo is small / lightweight. But .22wmr ammo still fits thst bill, but gives a significant increase in power. Screw a .22lr, .22wmr ftw.
Easy to carry a lot of .22lr ammo around, it's a common caliber, great for hunting small game, can work as a defensive round, and it's quiet! A hell of a lot of people own a Ruger 10/22. Spare parts available.Why do people always say .22lr for a bug out / shtf gun? The only rational argument i hear is that the ammo is small / lightweight.

Its just as easy to stockpile 22wmrmaybe 22lr is more plentiful than 22wmr?
Can't argue those choices!Here's my two cents:
The emphasis for me is on the top five categories. You can choose whatever variant you want but I tend to want to make sure these bases are covered.
1. Battle rifle (AR/Mini14...etc)
2. Long range rifle (bolt gun)
3. Close quarter defense (shotgun)
4. Something cheap to shoot/train with (10-22)
5. Sidearm (pistol)
A Ruger 10/22 would be one of my five. The amount of 22LR you can stow in a backpack is light years more than any other round. And there are many 20/30 round magazines for a 10/22.Why do people always say .22lr for a bug out / shtf gun? The only rational argument i hear is that the ammo is small / lightweight.

I'm all set then! With the exception of one.Here's my two cents:

They will all fit in the bug out bag. During the apocalypse we are all going to walk the long walk like in the movies^^^This^^^
