I saw that link too, but there's plenty of footage online that demonstrate brick will not stop everything.
I don't think a high caliber rifle is less likely to be negligently discharged than any other caliber. In the US a lot of people own hunting rifles. I don't know the stats compared to other types of firearms, but I feel like that or a hunting shotgun would be the most pervasive, and thus statistically most likely to be used in an incident like this. That's just an educated guess though, I may be off base on that one.
