The alternative is the M1 Carbine but it lacks the range and accuracy.
2nd alternative is the Garand which has range and power in spades but weight and stripper clips are the drawbacks.
Is my destination fixed or am I just trying to get 100 miles away in any direction? I ask because I can move NE and avoid highways and major roads. Any other direction has me crossing interstates within 20 miles.

You select the destination.
The distance has more to do with making for a reasonable load and requiring foraging/hunting/fishing as well as defense and necessitating several days and nights of movement.
No handgun or hunting weapons?
Not saying right or wrong, just trying to see your logic.
