As you have guessed I'm looking for a high capacity battle style deer rifle. I've been pondering this for months and I've narrowed it down to a Springfield M1A, DS Arms fal or a POF all of course chamberd in .308. The gun will be primary used hunting deer in the northwoods of Wisconsin but also looking for a shtf rifle. Up here you rarely shoot anything past 200 yards but I'd like a gun that I can comfortably shoot out to 300. I have friends that hunt every year with their AR-15 and are successful year after year but I'd like a big boy cartridge. I plan on putting a Trijicon 3X9 accupoint on my final decision. Not looking for anything over $2300 the lower the better but I will pay for quality. Help me out with your opinions.
