I would pick a Remington model 7 synthetic it light and short If it was an area where dangerous game was not a problem such as bear or montain lionit would be chambered in223. You could pack hundreds of rounds easy. If there were bear and such I would pick the same rifle but move up in caliber to probably 300 wsm or 350 rem mag.

If I had to go with only one gun, it would probably be either my 12 guage shotgun or my .50 caliber muzzle loader with a wide variety of bullets. I could load with 30-40 grains of powder and a round ball for small game and upland birds, and then 370 grain bullets and 80 or more grains of powder for bigger animals.

I'd pick a good 12 ga. with a hand full of slugs and some shotshells.
I'd probably choose a H&R or NEF single shot, that way you could put any shell you wanted in it as the situation happens and you wouldn't have to pack around a big ole pump gun or an O/U

Ruger #1 .270, 5 180 grain cartridges, 5 110 grain cartridges, and 2 150 grain cartridges. The 110's are light enough to take off a squirels head, the 150's work for yotes and deer, and the 180's will take down a moose if you hit it in the right spot.
Good luck getting all those different loads shooting any where's near the same place!!!

Anyway, use 150 NP's and you can throw away the 180's!!! In fact, you can throw away all the rest too!!
