Why the need for a such long range shooter? I personally have dropped my last two mulie bucks with my AR in .223/5.56? I have a 1in8 twist Wylde barrel I just used the heavier Barnes bullets with much success and pretty much zero meat loss. I'm kinda a shoulder buster sort of guy, don't like to have them run anywhere. So heavy Barnes bullets and I was fine.
The sole reason I use my AR is the weight, its light and my knees are shot. I lug around heavy rifles early in the season, then switch to the AR.
I also have a 6.5 Creed Bergara for longer range stuff and bigger critters (elk). Thats my lug around early season.
All my rambles is why bother with a serious long range round when a .223 would be fine? -WW
ps. I was raised on .270 but you're talking AR
