[QUOTE="imyourhuckleberry, post: 1475093, member: 18206"] Depends on what you expect from the cartridges whether it is going to be used or hunting and plinking, and than what kind of hunting. The 5.56 is a lot cheaper to shoot if you do not reload and is also a lot cheaper to reload if you do. If it is only going to be used for hunting such as hogs and deer I would prefer the .300 blackout, but a good heavy bullet in 5.56 like a 75 grain hornady or 77 smk is good enough for deer with proper shot placement. Do not know your level of expertise but if you are a novice I would start with 5.56. [/QUOTE]
