Any semiautomatic 22LR rifle would be great for HD. Easy to intuitively aim, and with no recoil every single shot will hit. I'd rather be shot at by somebody with a 9mm pistol than somebody with a 22 rifle... chances are that the pistol wielder would miss and the rifle wielder wouldn't. Plus 22LR is plenty lethal. Get your full-capacity magazine and stick it under your bed without any reservations as long as you're willing to squeeze the trigger more than once. :-)
