This subject may have been approach before but I can't find it on this forum.
My interest lays in finding a multi-purpose rifle to fill several roles, most importantly if necessary the defense of my family.
The rifle needs to be light in weight, semi-automatic with a box type magazine. I would prefer to stay away from a direct gas system, opting for a piston or recoil operated system for their reliability.
It needs to be of a intermediate caliber that is capable of accuracy out to a minimum of 300 meters but with sufficient energy to drop a deer size animal at that range or penetrate a block wall or car door with most of it's energy still intact. Like the rifle the ammo needs to be of a weight to allow the carrying of sufficient number of rounds to handle most situations if necessary.
Consideration for readily available ammo and spare parts are of importance as well.
Suggestions???
