for his Son.Got a pal that is wanting to get a new rifle for his son. .
The boy hunts from a platform elevated stand we built for him and is a pretty good shot, and can shoot with
a bipod from his stand. He is thinking of either a .260 or
.308 in something like the DPMS LR series. Only question is how accurate are they REALLY??? I have 40+ years of
reloading experience and his dad is a long time reloader as well. While we both have .223 AR's neither of us has any
experience with the larger calibers in an AR. Bolt actions are tough for him although he can do it. We are just trying
to find something that will make his hunting a little easier and more fun. Ranges will not be beyond 300 yards. Thanks for
any input you can offer on an AR in either of these two cals. Just how good does YOURS shoot??
