    ok so
    not reloading don't want a suppressor, short barrel.
    means it has to be small volume case so it's not all wasted in a huge muzzle blast.
    Also has to have OK ammo availability.
    My first pick would be something like the 300 blackout. Easy on ears, can be had in both subsonic and fast loads.

    Then 30-30, or one of the 35's, 35 Rem (gc stocks it) or the new 35 legend if anyone in NZ is stocking it.
    Next stop being one of the pistol calibers', 38sp/357mag, 40 S&W, 44mag, 45 LC, etc
    Load one of these in a nice lever action with a reflex dot sight and all will be good in the world.
