Are you looking at a gun for hunting primarily or to protect your home/family? Ever think of a shotgun?
In Canada defense is 'technically' not the purpose of a firearm. They are for sporting use only. Rifles for hunting or target, pistols for target only at approved ranges. Seriously.

However that Polytec M305 is a semi-auto rifle in .308 Win/7.62mmX51 NATO (but I have to look into whether .308 Win hunting round primers are safe in it, may get into reloading too), with a lot of 'tactical' options available. The mags are 20 rounds pinned to 5, and the round will knock down a moose or black bear. So it would totally be no good for defense.

The CZ is my second choice, but it is worthless for hunting, as almost all the ammo available is Czech military surplus 7.62mmX39 Soviet in FMJ, which you can't hunt with. It is a 'civilianized' version of the Czech military's assault rifle. Basically just semi-auto instead of select fire and the barrel made to Canadian Un-Restricted 18.5" minimum spec. We can even get them with bayonets and tactical folding stocks from the factory! Again totally no good for defense...

Silly Canadian gun laws...
