I'd take a serious look at the NEF Handi-Rifle, the Hi-Point 9mm carbine, and a simple 12 gauge shotgun. I have all 3, use them all for general duty and "truck guns." They're inexpensive, reliable, and they hit harder than a .22. Now, depending on where your property is, the .22 may be ideal. I see the mosin on the list as well, and an M44 would be a great little truck gun, but they're a little loud for me to just pop off rounds at jack rabbits. The handi I have is a .45-70, but I use 350 grain cast bullets sitting on 11.5 grains of Unique. Out to 100 yards, they're hard hitters, and they don't blow your hair back.
