Remington is a good, relatively low cost, high quality shotgun that will do what you want. Keep in mind that when hunting, you'll most likely have to install a magazine reducing spacer, called a magazine plug; that you would not want in the gun when it's doing duty as a home protection tool.

Think two shotguns for these extremely varied tasks. That way you can set up the home defense tool with an 8 round magazine, 18 inch barrel, and combat sling; and keep the hunting weapon set up for what you're hunting most often. If I had to choose which to buy first, I'd get the home defense taken care of right away.

I have a 12 gauge for home defense; my hunting gun is a very lightweight 20 gauge over/under. I can carry it all day since it weighs just over 6 pounds in the morning and never more than 15 pounds by the end of the day.
