Never thought I needed a 223 beings I have a 220 swift and a 22-250. But all I hear about lately is how dangerous and powerful they are. War machines etc.
All because of the AR platform supposedly. I'm really not one to buy into hype like that because I feel like I know better. But I guess I didn't always know about chicken bucks, flying bears, swamp squids either. Maybe an AR is the right rifle to battle swamp squids?
I seriously thought it might be something like a guitar gun that i would need for bringing swampy down. man if you gunna bring down a army of swamp squids your gunna need an army

If you want to stick with the AR platform, the .458 SOCOM would make a nice hammer. That should put the hurt on flying bears and the like. flying bears had a fight up against swamp squids swamp squids won flying bear population 55

Yeah, that guy hasn't been to the chickenbuck.
Lawdy, nothing lighter than 20mm for the cat tail slinging, swamp water living, genus architeuthis.
The tamarack bog overlay feeds the underlying bottomless swamp waters with highly alkaline magnesium carbonates, dissolved calcium and traces of unobtainium. This of course results in gigantism in freshwater Architeuthidae. (G-damn swamp squid)
Something clever here.

They eat a lot of deer, and not the sick or old ones.

Well in all fairness, it started with a small space squid crash about 12 years ago, space squid Don't need salt water. It's not politically correct to call them "alien" squid, so we say swamp squid.
And then they got big, on account of the stuff I said before.
