RE: .458socom barrel for ar-15
geeze... I can hardly belive a couple of you guys said what you said...
OK... one more time...
a .458 is a belted magnum used for very large game and short to moderate ranges... like grizzly bear @ 100 yards, or cape buffalo, muskox, etc..
a long range ace-pipper it ain't.
you wanna do stuff like that, you'd be better off with a Ballard 4 1/2 in .40-110
