This is just my opinion but if one wants to own a rifle, it should be in a rifle caliber. Pistol caliber rifles outside of a few exceptions are essentially a toy and can't reproduce the capabilities of a rifle caliber chambered rifle will. Many of those exceptions came in lever action and used the more powerful pistol calibers so that a cowboy only had to carry one round and still have the realistic expectation of being able to take down larger game.
