Hello all! I have been considering adding a rifle to my collection. Having owned zero rifles thus far in life, I wanted some input on what you believe would be a great all-around rifle.
I don't see myself owning very many rifles so I'd like to get the most versatile rifle possible. Here's the criteria:
I don't hunt, but if I had to, I'd like a rifle that could take small to medium game.
Good for home / property defense
Dependable
Relatively inexpensive to purchase
Relatively inexpensive ammo
Accurate
I have a couple single action handguns, so I am kinda partial to firearms of the mid to late 1800's. If you think a lever action would fit the bill I would be willing to shell out a few more dollars.
Thanks in advance for sharing your wisdom!
