I don't have any reason for wanting such a weapon these days. Just a hypothetical question of course 🤔

200 yards and in I don't see a benefit in anything on an AR10 platform. But what you are talking about sounds like a 300 blackout SBR can handle.

Seems like a lighter weight AR10 could deliver about 2x the terminal kinetic energy in a varmint size round versus a typical 223. That may be advantageous against someone with a vest or behind any barrier.



Shoot them in the face!

Funny how we have been killing our enemies with the 5.56 for a long time.

The penalties of the AR10 for use as a 200 yard and in rifle just don't add up. But have at it all you want.
