Evil black rifles...

[Tant01]

It must be a disease? I recently bought a little ar-15 from a buddy up the road. Took it out for some plinking over the weekend and decided to ditch the budget holo sight in favor of a scope. It's not quite legal to hunt with because of the tiny little bullets so I stepped up to a Sig Saur 716 (.308) In about eight more days I'll be sending 7.62 down range! Big fun!

The AR-15 has a Nikon P223 on it now and I went and got a new .450 bushmaster upper for it. It's a beast! The AR-10 is out of gun jail and in my hands. I ordered a dedicated lower for the .450 instead of swapping the parts to switch guns. I'm telling you it's a real sickness EF.

Nice little rifle there.

KOTF! It's not so little any more! The 5.56 mm (.223) wasn't doing it for me so I bumped it with a new .450 upper!

Before the .308 came in I was banging 250 Gr. .45 cal. @2200 fps. out of my AR-15.

Hey Tanto, is the "tiny little bullet thing" a California thing? if so what are restrictions in your state?

As long as it is centerfire in Texas we can hunt with it.

[Tant01]

You are right. Here any center fire with soft nose or expanding bullets is legal for big game. All my 223 ammo is FMJ and I just don't want to use it for deer or bear. (Good excuse to buy more black rifles?) :P LOL

Lighter bullets can be very effective, ever heard of Karamojo Bell ?

Yep. One of my favorite hunting guns was a .25-06. I've been using my 7mm rem mag for years. Nice flat shooters both.
