.30 AR vs. 7.62x39mm - External Ballistics

[Kernel]

Very few viable large game guns have ammo capacities above 4 or 5 rounds....that's done by control exerted from the government.

Double rifles only hold 2 rounds!! Therefore, the government must be controlling them TWICE as much. Dude, take off the tin foil hat.

Back to Topic.

Let the battle of the Largest Case Capacity begin. (About time, ammo makers. I've been waiting 20 years). Take the winner, neck it down to 6.5mm or 7mm, and go hunting. Either would be an awesome deer cartridge for the AR platform.

I don't see this cartridge making a lot of headway. It seems to me that if you have an AR 15-type rifle, and if you want to use it for deer, and if you don't want to use the 5.56X45 (.223 Rem) for that purpose, and you have the bucks to buy a new upper, this is for you.

I don't see a lot of people meeting all those ifs.

I hope the RAR lasts for a while. I have been considering using a BR case in a shortened 98 Mauser. The brass is now hard to find and is expensive. If the RAR lasts a while I will try to get a 1000 or so cases and make up an action with three barrels, one in .257, one in .30 and one in .358. The .257 would get the most use.
