Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
These different options certainly broaden the use of the AR-15 platform, but still can't make it do everything. For example, I'd rather take a .308 or larger for elk and larger hunting, and obtaining an inexpensive bolt gun is pretty easy. For those who don't hunt anything larger than white tail, it probably could be an everything platform.

Not sure I agree with the "not good for hunting" part. I'm sure that applies to elk, but the axis deer I murdered 2 weeks ago didnt go far. (170-180 yards, 55gr Tula hollow point).Originally Posted by 20X11
That statement was made on the basis that not all states allow .22 caliber for game animals. No offense to those that hunt in states that allow them.
True. Didnt think of it that way. I was using one of my super scary 30 round mags too...That statement was made on the basis that not all states allow .22 caliber for game animals. No offense to those that hunt in states that allow them.
FYI..you might want to check section #203 if you are hunting in Colorado...

Yeah, I know CO requires bigger projectiles, just wasn't thinking that way when I posted. No fun magazines here either.
I was in a different state, with no mag caps on deer or exotic species. I went down there with the intent to shoot feral pigs, so I just left the bigger guns at home. When that didn't pan out, 3 of us went out and got 3 deer.
If he's hunting Axis deer, it's either on the island of Leni in Hawaii (which might not even allow rifles, but I don't remember), or in Texas. Since he's got a bunch of family in Texas, I'm going to say the latter.

Sweet... are Axis deer tasty?
I can barely tell the difference between them and lean beef.
No set season either, which is nice.
I hear Axis deer are the TASTIEST of them all.
