I'll solve your problem. PCCs are stupid as a defensive weapon. If you are using a rifle, it should be using a 3000fps projectile, not a 1200fps one.
Would you use a PCC to hunt? No. You know why? Because trying to kill things with a PCC when your explicit intent is to kill is inhuman. Pick up a .223 or .308.
There are some PCCs that are smaller and even fold making them a little more accessible for defensive use than a full sized rifle when space is at a premium. At my office I don’t have the safe space for a loaded AR but I do for a folded Sub2000 (Glock compatible mags). It‘s my get home gun (I also carry all day, every day, but might want something a little more substantial than my 365 if I need to bug out of the office in a SHTF scenario). At home it’s a similar situation: I can store a folded Sub in my upstairs safe right next to the mag compatible Glock. My long guns are in a safe in the other part of the house. The Sub2000/Glock will get me to my rifles if needed and will take care of intruders.
I got the Subs first, then a Glock to match the mags as my primary home pro handgun.
If safe space wasn’t a factor, I’d definitely choose a rifle.
