I have a healthy collection of Handguns, I've made a pledge to myself that I will not purchase another handgun until I purchase at least one long gun.
I'm set on a Remington 870 Home Defense 12ga for my shotty
Now to the rifle.
On the 2A forum I've gotten some good advice. I'm just looking for a little more detail here.
My Purpose for the rifle: I don't hunt so this is a defensive rifle for me. I'll shoot it for fun, but I need something I can rely on in a SHTF scenario like Katrina. I'm in CALIFORNIA (hint) so Earthquake is most likely the scenario.
The calibers suggested and most interesting to me are .308 and 30-06.
1) I'd like to know what are the real differences between these two?
Rifle: I like the Remington 700 bolt action and the Springfield Armory M1A Scout/squad.
2) Of these two which would you choose for my stated purpose?
3) Any great CALIFORNIA friendly rifles/calibers I've left out?
TIA
