I'm looking to build or buy a new deer gun for next season. I have a Rugged Alaskan in the works. My current deer gun is a AR in 450 BM with a 20inch barrel. I hunt public woods and have never needed to take a shot more than 100 yards. I'm looking for something shorter, quieter, and lighter to carry. I'm leaning towards the new Ruger American Gen II Ranch when it comes out or building another AR. Possibly a pistol with a 12.5 inch barrel. Is a 350L pistol a dumb idea and I should just put together a 16 inch rifle, buy a bolt gun or something else I haven't considered?
