Hunting after will be quiet snares and traps or supressed. Large bang and everyone comes. Ammo better saved for defense. That being said a .22 can harvest deer all day under 100 yards but you better be good enough to brain pan them.
With 410 I was out at our blood/gut pit and ran into a black bear that did not get hint to leave 410 slug took him down one shot heart/lung shot. It staggered for about 100 feet then drooped but have had that happen with a 30-06 with soft nose aswell.
With single shot you best place your shot well with savage. It’s good for teaching control to new hunters.
For small things like grouse rabbit and pheasant I carry a good slingshot and a single arrow with a bunny buster tip. I use a whisker biscuit in the center of y and then aI’m and shoot. Most shots under 20 feet 80 percent kill with rock or arrow. Yes you do lose arrows make sure you get bright ones.
