The Ruger 7722 in the laminated Varmint version closely matches the the feel and functionality of not only the Ruger 77, but also corresponds nicely with the model 70 Winchester. So, yes, I think the 22LR belongs in the mix, not as ideal for the game animals mentioned, but as an ideal practice rifle with unbeatable ammo economics. Get the one that most closely matches your favorite center-fire.
