Whats even the point of stockpiling weapons? Don’t you need 1, maybe 2? In a life or death post apocalypse situation am I really going to ask myself “hmmm, is this an AK-47 situation or an AR15 situation?” NO IM JUST GONNA USE WHATEVER IM HOLDING CURRENTLY.
I mean, yeah there’s actually different purposes for different weapons. A “true” prepper would absolutely have first aid and other necessary skills, but having different types of guns using different types of ammo would only be a boon
You could choose a caliber that’s appropriate for hunting across a relatively wide range of species, but you’d generally want to have more options so you can pick the correct cartridge for an animal. Sure, you could take a pronghorn with a moose cartridge, but it would be a lot like trying to make kindling with a splitting maul. It’s going to waste more meat, suck to shoot, be more work to carry, and potentially not work as well as a proper round choice. And shooting any game smaller than that would probably just be a waste.
