Default Building a hunting kit

i have tossed around the idea for many years. Usually when i go hunting i am always looking for certain things. Deciding what rifle im going to take. making sure i have everything with me. Over the years i have set up a backpack with all the small gear I need and it hangs up on my gear shelf. Now what i am trying to put together is a hard case i can just grab and go. I have tossed around ideas for so long on what rifles i will put into a hard case. I have ordered a 53" hard case. i will have plenty of room for what ill need.

So here's my question...... If you were making a grab and go kit for hunting, and almost all your hunting trips are the same, what would you take? Most of my hunting is whitetail on our property in georgia. I also go out and clear out coyote when they start getting really bad in our area. The only other hunting i do is whitetail in Wisconsin from time to time but not often and the rare trip out west to hunt mule deer. I was always considering 2 bolt actions and my backup pistol in the case. the caliber choices are endless there. the second option is to build a complete AR-15 or an AR-10 and then have a second upper to go with it. my top choice in calibers so far for the AR-15 is a standard 223 upper and then maybe my 350 legend upper. the problem is range. In Georgia my longest shot is only 150 yards but in Wisconsin it can be as far as 300 and out west it is usually 400-500 yards when we hunt there. Going with an AR-10 gives me the ability to go 308 and gain more range. i can go with a 243 upper for predators.
