Hey guys,
We're working on a NEW (much-asked-for) .223 Rem Cartridge Guide.
One sub-topic we'll cover is AR15s--for both match rifle shooting and varminting.
I've gone squirrel shooting with my AR. I concluded that, while it is fun to use a magazine, the AR would not be my first choice for future varmint expeditions. Didn't like the stock length/height when shooting from the ground, didn't like the way the gun sat on the bags when shooting from the bench. I also hated chasing the brass.
That said, I know a lot of guys love to use ARs for Varminting.
Let's hear both sides of the debate.
If you like the AR as a varmint platform, tell us why.
If you think an AR15 is over-rated as a varminter, explain.
Let the debate begin...
