[QUOTE="AlongCameJones, post: 3598143, member: 47875"] Thank you, sir, a sensible answer. I have been thinking it over since the OP. If you want your prepper weapon to also be your deer rifle, buy a DB10 in .308. A gas-operated semi-auto rifle in .308, like the AR-10/DB10, should be gentler to your firing shoulder than a .308 bolt gun. If you want your prepper weapon to also be your rat gun, buy a DB15 in 5.56 NATO. .308 will kill gophers, vaporize them, but it's not very cheap on ammo to do so. Deer are prestigious game and I don't mind spending up to $2 a pop for killing a nice doe. Gophers, chucks, prairie dogs, rats and ground squirrels are little varmints often shot in high volumes. You can get cheap surplus 5.56 for that. Many folks like to plink cans and bottles and stuff with an AR too so hip-hip-hooray for cheap 5.56!! :clap3: [/QUOTE]
