Thinking about the idea of a .308 AR on a mount on our boat when traveling to questionable areas of Europe and South Africa. I mainly ask about how a standard AR-10 will hold up to semi rapid fire for about 20 rounds. If we were ever being pursued by a boat with identifiable weapons, will this gun work to shoot warning shots in the vicinity of a boat at around 400 yards? We have 5.56 ARs for closer range stuff, but the idea would be to be able to reach out beyond the distance of their AK's (300-400 yards) and be able to just shoot a few warning shots in the general area of their boat. Warning shots from a distance seem to be the safest way to ward off confirmed attackers who are following you. What do you guys think, will the ar-10 fit this application? I dont need to disable or destroy anything, I would just like to have a caliber that could hit a few shots in the vicinity.
