We've had pretty much every type, and for what you want to do, get a bumper pull trailer. Easy to unhook the truck, which you'll need for hunting.
We have had mostly slide-in campers over the years, because wife has to pull a horse trailer everywhere (we have 2 pickups, so she can put the camper on in April or so, and it stays on until October). But if we didn't have to tow something, I'd never get a slide-in. Just not enough room, and you lose the use of the pickup. A hassle to get in and out of the bed up top.
Sure, you could take the camper off at the campsite, but taking it on and off is more of a job than it looks like, and then when you get it off, its too unstable on the jacks to use like that- so you'd have to bring sawhorses along to lower it onto. Just too much hassle.
And when you start shopping, you'll find that you can get a decent bumper pull for less $$ than a slide in, anyhow. Just because there are so many more around.
And the canvas pop-up thing is a summer rig only, usually for families with kids and no real tow vehicle. It would be miserable in the winter.
Better if you can keep it inside, but you could also use tarps over the top when stored, or get one of those cheap 10 X 20 shelters at O'Reillys.

When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
