@EHJ Recently posted a link to an incident where a good guy with a gun ended a potential mass shooting with a hunting rifle by shooting the suspect. While there are a lot of discussions on what makes a good concealed carry choice or home defense choice, what about a scenario where a threat is a greater distance than you would feel 100% certain of engaging with a handgun or shotgun. What would you choose and why? I ask because most of my planning stems around my bedside handgun and my shotgun and I am unsure of exactly how I would answer. Would you choose an AR, a hunting rifle, or something else? Still choose a handgun or shotgun? Would using an AR in a defensive situation be regarded in a more negative light?
I'm leaning towards my Ruger American Ranch in 5.56 with peep sights and AR mags, but truthfully don't have anything specifically staged for this scenario.
