How many hunt with an AR10?

[clearconscience]

Well the grip isn't the issue. It just feels cheap. ( get what you pay for )
I really wanted the Aero hand guard anyway, they just haven't released the new M5 handguards, supposedly they are retooling to start making them for the next version.

I'm also trying to decide if I want to buy a new scope, but for now I will probably just take the Vortex off my Remington.

After I get the scope on I will weigh it and let you guys know.

No AR10, but I'm determined to get a deer with the AR 15 in 300blk this year.

Wish you good hunting!

It will be a long ways out before I'm comfortable enough to go out hunting. A heck of a lot to learn. That's one of the reasons I bought a .300 barrel, to someday be able to take, & process a deer.

Well I shot my AR10 yesterday and it was perfect. Put 40rds through it and it operated perfectly. I'm always a little apprehensive when I do a build if it will function without a hiccup.
Only time I had an issue was with light trigger springs in my 24" AR15.

I still need to weigh it.

It took me a while to get it sighted in, was my fault I was being an idiot and adjusting it the wrong way.
But the last 4 shots I had at 100yds I aimed at two spots. 2 shots in one and 2 shots in the other. The groups were within an 1"-1 1/2" so it will take some more shooting time to see how accurate it is.

In all honesty, I don't even think of the AR any other way than for hunting and plinking. I don't think about who I'm gonna use it on. If things get that bad, your lifespan is limited.

 

[clearconscience]

Oh for sure.
I would never look any any of my firearms as a tool for hurting or killing another person.
All my firearms are for sportsman activities. Target practice, hunting, and just plain works of mechanical art.

The thought of ever having to use my firearm on another human being makes me sick.
I wouldn't hesitate to protect myself or my family, but I oray that day never comes.

Maybe I'm off, but that's about the only use for my daily carry guns... Not for hunting or plinking.

Yes, it gets range time but guess what kind of target I'm aiming at??? A person shaped target with hit zones.


Do I "want" to shoot someone? Oh hell no! But that's what those guns are for.

I'm so balls they call me Sisyphus. what was the question?
lol

 

[Certaindeaf]

Just a little thought. If you ever see a f humping a .30, make him your friend. hey, what are friends for?

I took a couple Mulies in Washington State last year with a AR15 chambered in 6mm (6x6.8 SPC) on at 60 yards or so with a 90gr Accubond at close to 3000 FPS and the other at 287 yards with a 95gr SST. Both were Bang/Flop's! I was impressed with the 95gr 6mm SST. It exited on a broad side double lung shot at 287 yards and completely destroyed both lung, serious internal damage.

90gr Accubond



Took the shot from above and behind the buck. In the phot bellow the entrance is on the right side exit on the left. Broke several ribs going in, destroyed the lungs and exited on a rib. The 90gr Accubond performed well.



95gr SST. 287yards, Mulie doe. Sorry about the pic. Last light photo.



It was almost a perfect 90 degree broadside shot.

Impact side.



Exit side.





I enjoy hunting with AR's

Top rifle, is the same I used above but with a 9 twist 6x45 barrel.

Bottom rifle is a 16" rifle length gas, 8twist, .264 LBC.

 

[clearconscience]

Nice looking deer, and excellent looking ARs.

 

[HuckleberryFun]

I don't, but I respect those who do. Why not use an Armalite action in .308, the way Mr. Stoner intended? Good choice.

We used to hunt pigs with FALs. My buddy had a British army sweater and it looked just like Belfast out in the woods.

Ah, the "right arm of the free world," another tried and true classic bacon getter. Have you travelled the Springwater Corridor lately? Truly Belfast in the woods.

 

[clearconscience]

Belfast?

Looks like Haiti after the 2010 earthquake. If it were also a zombie apocalypse.

So does every other part of portland. Those homeless villages are everywhere.

Congratulations, Portland, you've been demoted from "The Troubles" poster child to hemisphere Basket Case. (Sigh.)
