[QUOTE="O4L, post: 3382513, member: 24429"] Yes, the AR-15 platform in particular. I have no desire to move into the AR-10 platform at this time. The reason that I have never really considered the 300 BO is that I have a 30-30 (I would just use that but a semi-auto for hogs is what I would prefer for multiple follow up shots) and I want a caliber that is not similar to what I already have. I would be happy with a bolt gun for deer and that would definitely open things up for me but I want one rifle for both hogs and deer. The "cheap a$$" ammo is one of the reasons I started thinking about the 7.62x39 again. I know that some people use an extended firing pin to shoot the hard primer stuff. I really don't know if I need more than a 5.56 for hogs and deer because I haven't had a shot at either one yet with an AR but I know that I may be pushing the limits with a 75 grain bullet and I'm just looking at options.
