Hello, this is my first post. I’ve been studying the gold mine of ballistic information provided by DocGKR and others, and I had a question.
I have a SCAR 17S that I shoot quite a bit and like. Is it crazy for me to consider it for home defense? Some of the loads tested look like they don’t overpenetrate, at least rounds that hit their target first. If this isn’t a good caliber option for home defense, what is the best choice for a home defense long gun? For physical reasons, I’m not considering shotguns, so that isn’t an option in my case.
