Questions about survivalist weapons?

So, i am getting into all this survivalist stuff. Right now i have 2 12 guage shotguns and a 30 06 bolt action. I also have a 22 rifle and pistol. Right now i am looking for a good handgun and rifle for defensive purposes. The pistol is a beretta 92fs. Would this be a suitable handgun? I know 9mm has its issues but the gun seems to fit me. As for a rifle i am looking at either an ar15 223 with 16″ barrel or a remington 7600 30 06 carbine with 10 rd mags. Which of these would be better?

ideas for 2 weapon caches 4 the apocalypse. i have 4 guns- 12 ga, 22 rifle, 45, 22 pistol. what R the combos?

i have 2 residences about 16 miles away from each other and separated by a large rivers. i am 90% at one location (home, urban) and occasionally at my 2nd spot (suburban).

as a certifiable survivalist, i am wondering about the best combination of weapons (guns only in this question, plenty of ammo) to store at each residence.

i own:

a 12 gauge pump shotgun (5+1)
a .22 rifle (2 mags, 5 rounds each)
a .45 handgun (2 mags, 8 rounds each)
a .22 handgun (3 mags, 10 rounds each)

please take into account that my wife is much smaller than i and prefers to shoot the .22 handgun (shes very good). she CAN shoot the .45 but its a cannon and her accuracy goes considerably down. she is unfamiliar with the .22 rifle and the shotgun is loaded pretty heavy and has a pistol grip so i feel that she wont really be effective with it (although it is a shotgun, it takes alot to be completely non-effective with it) after a few rounds.

i on the other hand am very proficient with all 4 weapons.

its basically that i want 2 here and 2 there, but im open to ideas.

please take into account:

lethality
range of effective fire for each weapon
types of ammo (basically should i split up the .22 ammo supply)
proficiency of the users
ammo capacity
types of locations
