I don't bum around in the woods much anymore, but when I did, my woods gun was always a 22 of some sort. We're fresh out of big bears, lions, tigers and such. Usually the biggest thing I had to worry about was a rogue pine cone, or something of that nature. I could have tried to shoot squirrels I suppose, but never did.
My two favorites were a Ruger Bearcat in a Ruger holster, and a 9 shot High-Standard Sentinel in an Uncle Mikes belt holster.
