Currently, my only rifle is an AR15. I use it as a target rifle and also for home defense. I'm going to start shopping for something in a larger caliber as a SHTF and ultimately longer range rifle. I'd like to know what caliber you would recommend and why. I'm going to consider .308/7.62, 6.8mm and 300 AAC. As far as rifle type, AR style, Mini-30, Gunsite Scout but probably not Ruger American because of limited capacity. At this point, I'm really most interested in what caliber people recommend and why. If it makes any difference, I'd be reloading ammo once I break it in. Once I get past .223/5.56, I'm pretty ignorant so please help educate me. Thanks.
