Be a little bit careful.
ARs are great HD guns when using correct ammo. The best option (I think) is a dedicated load like Hornady TAP ammo. Something like say, 55 gr fmj is probably not terrible, but if someone reading this really doesn't know the difference between various military loads, and just thinks that it's all the same, might grab some steel-core M855 ammo and assume that it is unlikely to overpenetrate is making a big mistake. It will shred the target and probably the next house as well.
