I supose we did go a little OT but we are talking about a round originaly developed for hunting,adopted by the military and a common AR platform. I just wanted to point out that if the military still uses the .308 as a front line sniper round and able to hit targets effectivly at 600 to 800 yards then your point about a
"mortor shot" is incorrect because I'm pretty sure these guys are in sub MOA even at that range.
Also, like I said before. Shot placement is key. Whether it be behind the sholder of and Elk or between the body armor panels of an enemy. Stalking your prey is all in the sport of hunting but let's be honest. Sometimes you need range to get that trophy.
Back OT. I do know that Bushmaster made a 5 rd mag for hunting and yes in Oregon you are limited to hunting with 5 rds or less in your rifle(if you can't bust in the first three,go home).
I'm just planning on making my own limited 5 rd mag for hunting this year.
