RE: coyotes stealing pets in.portland oregon
Never had a problem with the 308, but I clean them all, and that is half the battle there. The 300 blackout looks like a pistol round, but the Creedmore looks promising in the AR platform. I wonder if the 308 is too hot for long term use in the AR platform
It ran way cooler in my opinion. And huge weight savings. And the gas piston? Makes it run way cooler than the direct gas impingement. Which also makes cleaning a breeze.
Then uppers. That's the issue. With both the ar15 and the 10 you can run a new upper that has dedicated optics and switch out calibers.
Careful a few guys exchange the wrong ammo and oops.
But now with a 2 pin system you rock the same nice trigger and shoot 17hmr,22lr, pistol rounds, 556, 300 bo, 450 bushmaster, 50 Beowulf.
The 10? 243, 7mm-08, 308, and 338-08 and I do think 6.5creedmore
I have three ARs one 223, and two 556; I may try the creedmore, but I have better stuff on the larger bore, and just don't quite trust this platform. It takes me about an hour to finish an 80% on my mill, but I have just made a couple. Not interested in the 243 for the same reason, not enough pill to carry the energy.
When I hunt, I want a KILL, not a wound; although with coyotes, and hogs I will take what I can get!
