Scoped AR

You don't need a hunting rifle to kill most game in North America

White tail and brown bear are still dead with .233

AR-15 is the undisputed STHF king. To say otherwise means you're a fucking retard.

>brown bear dead with .223

It'll work if you get a headshot, and you'll want to go for headshots anyway because a torso wound from anything shy of a .50BMG isn't going to stop a grizzly before it mauls you.

>>30660935
Meant to say black,

>>30661100
Sorta this

.308 or more tho for browns

Are bears even in the top 5 most populous game species in the lower 48?

Alaska may be an exception but not the rest of the country.

Just...buy an AR15. Really.

I mean, a torso shot with a .308 will probably kill it, eventually, but if you don't drop it inside of 10 seconds when it's coming at you you're gonna get fucked up. I think what matters is to have a semiauto, any semiauto, that you can magdump at it and hope for the best.

Brown bears and white tails can be killed with .233 ARs? Those sound amazing, where can I find a .233 upper?

>>30660539
Scoped AR-15. The only reason people aren't hunting deer with .223 AR-15s in fifty states is stupid local laws banning rifle hunting outright, or requiring a 6mm minimum caliber.

>>30660539
In SHTF, the correct choice of rifle is one that chambers the rounds your government's military uses

In America that means an AR

Friends.

>headshot
>brown bear

The skull is the hardest and thickest bone in a bear's body, not to mention the smallest target. You're gonna aim for that as it's charging you at 30mph? You're supposed to go for vital organs numbnuts.

semi auto .270 would be tits
