In my opinion best home defense weapon is a shotgun.

Not sure about riffles, but a good hunting rifle would be a Remington 700 in .30-06 or .308.

Are the larger caliber ammo still available? I have been lead to believe that it is becoming very hard to get in a large quantities.

What type of hunting? For home defense a short overall length shotgun would be handy as would a low powered big bore handgun such as the .45 Colt, something like the old Colt New Service or a Smith & Wesson model 25.
Actually just about any handgun is better than nothing. I like autos but for quick simple use a revolver might be better.
Even a Ruger 10/22 Autoloading rifle would be fine. Keep it loaded with a high quality 30-50 round magazine and you could do a lot worse. It is short and handy and pretty powerful with those soft lead bullets putting out 150 ft. Poudns of energy.

I'd go with the Winchester 1300 Defender shotgun with the high vis fiber optic front sight for home defense. I own one and have equipped it with a pistol grip / folding stock. Simple to use, reliable and very intimidating.

Too bad you’d have to buy a registered gun.
They’re going to eventually come for it, you know.

Yeah. Inside the home you really do not want to be using a rifle. Also inside the home you do not want to use full metal jacket bullets.
Join the NRA and get training too.

In my opinion best home defense weapon is a shotgun. Agree - it's almost impossible to miss and the shot doesn't kill a sleeping child three rooms down. Shoot a pistol and the shot goes right through layers of drywall - not so with a shotgun. Also, the intimidation factor - anyone looking down the barrel knows you're not going to miss...
