Nah, I'm an old fart, and the AR is my go-to platform now for game up to white tail. 5.56 up to different calibers in that same platform.I'd imagine that really depends on our age . . . . I have several ARs in various calibers that I'd take out hunting, but usually grab a bolt action.
I've taken my Grendel out a few times though.
I think most of us older folks would just take a bolt action out.
Elk hunting, it's a bolt gun because I don't have an AR in a big enough caliber.
