Alone in the wilderness - revised inventory

[Pathfinder]

Remember that dude that got his hand trapped in the rock and had to slice it off so he could crawl to rescue?

Yes, I do remember that dude.

PS couldn't you consolidate the pistol and air rifle into a small caliber rifle like a 22?

Problem #1 - I would not feel safe depending on a .22 to protect me from large hungry furries. I won't even feel completely safe depending on my .357 magnum to protect me if I happen to get charged by a grizzly bear. Those are some tough animals. But at least I'll have 6 chances to change his mind.

Problem#2 - .22 ammunition, while small, is not as small as a .177 pellet. I could not carry thousands of .22 bullets along with my other gear. They would take up too much room and add too much weight. So I would be limited in how many times I could use it. Should the worst happen and I can't get back fast enough, the greater number of pellets will keep feeding me long after I would have run out of .22 bullets.
