I enjoy AR hunting. I know that some find it taboo but my POF-308 is an excellent weapon. Mag restrictions vary state by state but is is a very versatile gun and fun to own. I shot a 350 lb hog with it and dropped it in 1 shot at 75 yds. 308 is capable of pretty much any game in North America. The AR is a lot of fun on range days also which helps to make it a Multi purpose rifle. Good luck with you decision and enjoy!
