My basic philosophy is this. If I have to take up my long arms, then it really doesn't matter who the heck sees them. I tend to favor a lite is right approach. You can only carry so much for so long, then there comes a point where you have to look at the land to sustain you. The food is just there to provide a margin of comfort and give you some time to get away before you look to mother nature.

I like the Lever action approach in .357 magnum. That way you can run a 6 inch wheel gun as well. Then you can direct your efforts at acquiring the same basic ammunition.
