Hey Guys,
I have two Ar-15 lowers left over from the DM group buy. I want to build a rifle that I can use to take black bear hunting. I really want to go .308 win but of course that's to big of a round to fit into an ar-15 lower. My question to you is what should I go with? The laws for hunting a black bear in MA is you can use anything larger than a .23 caliber. I am thinking about going with a 6.5 grendel which of course ammo is hard to find and I would probably have to reload for it. I am looking for any advice you guys can give me.
****Mods if you need to move this go ahead. I am not sure if this belongs here or under the firearms thread.****
