For general home defense(that meaning a situation where I'd have to act fastest, the shotgun is prefered(at least for me) for the following reasons:
1) BG is less likly to survive(Bad people don't need to live, and they definatly don't need to be sueing)
2) Its pretty fool proof, and less prone to the dumb mistakes
Though, for all other situations and for situations where I could think on it, I would go for a rifle as its what I am most comfortable with.
