    Default AR 10 big game hunting.

    Anybody have any issues with DOW and hunting with AR type platform. I have heard horror stories, just wondering if any one encountered this?

    Thanks

    Hunt big game AR-10 no issues. Use cut down p-mag 5 round, or you could block it pretty easily

    Never heard of any issues with them. Just make sure if you modify a mag to only hold 5, it must be a permanent mod

    I've been using my .243 wssm AR15 for antelope hunting the last three seasons. Two years ago I got pulled over at a check station at Punkin Center. They checked everything, except my rifle. It was in a case and I asked them several times if they wanted to check it, mostly because I wasnted to see thier reaction to the AR, but once I told them I was shooting a .243 wssm, they didn't care to look at what style the rifle was, and I didn't tell them what it was either.
    With the .243 wssm, a 10 rd. mag. will only hold 4 rounds because they single stack.
    Like has been said, I don't think you'd have any issues. I still waiting to get checked while coyote calling with a suppressed AR too.
