Hello,
I want a lightweight semi-auto in a caliber powerful enough to easily and legally take deer, hogs that is also RELIABLE, relatively low-maintenance and suitable for battlefield and up-close and long-range rapid fire defense.
I am considering another 308 (possibly a DPMS G2 Hunter 16" Brl or Anderson AM10 w/ r85 coating) or an AR platform 6.5 Grendel (possibly Alexander Arms 18" Hunter model, or puting together a regular AR15 lower w/ an Alexander or much cheaper Anderson 6.5 upper) or 6.8 SPC (about which I know the least).
What are the advantages/disadvantages and suitability of each caliber for the given applications, and most recommended platform?
