I have three 308 rifles, love them all and all have a bunch of kills on them.
The AR-10 was just too much for me to carry around, so I went to a 300 HAMR (30-30 ballistics out of an AR-15), or a 6mm ARC (308 ballistics out to 600 yards or so out of an AR-15).
Mrs. Walter will be sporting the 6mm ARC for hunting this year. I may take the 300 HAMR just to bloody it.
I'm trying to talk her into a drive to Texas for a hog hunt.
Or closer, any recommendations? We're in the TriCities in south eastern WA State.
