I am in the process of building and planning one as well. Two things I think in general are important.
First, whatever is in this bag is not used for anything else. As well backpacking I use duplicate gear for day hikes, car camping, and kayaking. I have bags that are unique for each. Invariably, I am out and find an item is home sitting in another bag. If you "borrow" something from the bug out it is likely not to be there when you need it.
Second, for all gear there is a cardinally rule- if you have two, you have one, and if you have one, you have none. Everything eventually fails, breaks, or gets lost. Critical gear requires a back up(s), which is what BelieveIn is doing with two calibers.
