Have a AR in 350legend I built as soon as I was able to get a barrel after the release. A little bit of a jam-o-matic. Hoping the adjustable gas block I ordered will fix that problem. Just have a standard bolt face tikka looking to rebarrel.If you want something bigger bore, but short range, then you should look at .350 legend. Lowish recoil, lots of factory ammo, lots of options for rifles, including tikka. Can run a number of 9mm suppressors on it, just have to verify it will support it. Kills deer just fine within its range limits.
I have 223s, 243s, 7mm08s, 30-30s, 308s and 30-06s. Other than maybe a creedmore or the 277fury I have to go bigger. Really just looking for a short range where BC don’t matter larger bore cartridge that’s different. That’ll thump a deer. Pretty much the same reason upland hunter gravitate to 28ga or 16ga. Im just a little different and that the way I like it.I’m curious why the OP is going directly away from what he said he wanted? He said he wanted as many bang-flops as possible. Slow and heavy is not the way to get there. His 243 with 95 NBT is going to give as many bang flops as anything larger. Now if he just wants a big rifle, that’s cool. But he should realize that his large rifle is only going to be the same, or longer, time to incapacitation.
I’ve read all the small cartridge threads till I can’t physically read them anymore. They work and they work well. I’m not denying the evidence is there. Maybe one day I’ll load some 62gr TSXs(I hunt coppers) in the 223 and hunt it. We will see. I shoot all the cartridges above well and they all kill well when you put the right bullet where it needs to go.
