Which AR to build???

[Thumper]

Looking to build a new AR for deer hunting. Currently have 308, 450 Bushmaster, & 223. Cannot decide on 6.5 ? 6.8 ? 7.62 x 39 ? or 300 wisper ? Looking for advice on what others are using. I keep it under 200 yards. Thanks for the Advice !!!

im not a deer hunter, but have you also looked at the 300 aac blackout?

 

[Thumper]

could be another option !!!

300 BLK would be my first choice due to being able to use standard AR mags followed by 6.8.

I think the 300 Blackout can also fire 300 Whisper rounds. But the the 300 Whisper cannot fire 300 Blackout. SO I might go with the Blackout over the Whisper for that reason.

I've got a .300 Blk and I love it. The ammo is getting easy to find and cheaper too. So that would be my vote. I'm bias though.

300 BLK OUT gets my vote been wanting one on a stag lh upper soon very soon

And u need another? Seems you have all the bases covered.... but you can always get you one of those .50 bmg uppers!

6.8 is my choice, followed by 7.62x40, then 6.5G.

-221/Whisper/Blackout isn't even on my radar...maybe if I hunted hogs at night suppressed, but then I'd just do a suppressed .458 SOCOM and not play around.

300BLK is the correct answer.

300BLK is the correct answer.

Who is the best manufacturer of 300 BLK uppers currently?
