[QUOTE="Lapua Hunter, post: 452521, member: 7052"] Like drt4lfe, I also have an AR30. I really like it and have used it for hunting. I am over 50 and in so- so shape, so it does get heavy. I have taken mule deer, elk and oryx with it. It really shines for oryx here in NM, which are hunted in open country at long range and are extremely tough. My rifle has dropped 4, all with one shot. The first animal I took with it was over 700 yards, and I am no expert shooter. I have carried the gun many miles a day and it does get to be a load on a sling, but it can be done. That said, I most often leave it in the truck when hunting mulies and elk, and only pull it out if I intend to hunt a big overlook. Mostly I run around with my 7MM. For the price the AR 30 has worked great for me, but I would not want one for short shots in timber back east... [/QUOTE]
