Oh, don't get me wrong, while I do like the AR style rifle and semiauto rifles are very useful, and yes I have them Mainly for a self defense situation, it goes with my Prepping lifestyle. The fact of the matter is if I were out hunting really small game I would use one of my 22Lr rifles or if larger game such a s deer I have lever action rifles in .44mag and 30-30, I was just pointing out that AR style rifles can and are used for hunting, .223cal/5.56mm for medsized game and 300 blk and 7.62 x 39 and 7.62 x 52 for larger game. That said most of my hunting in the last couple of years has been with a long bow, I have a neighbor that used to make very nice ones until he passed away, have two one in 45lb and one in 55lb pull.
