Why mess around with a small block, go with a BIG BLOCK.........AR-500
I have it in both the AR and Ruger American ranch. It shoots the same POI no matter what ammo I feed it. It suppresses well. I like the Ruger a little more do to reloading and future load development. I got into to it when Win FMJ's were $10 a box and stacked deep.
so it's a 35 remington for semi autos ?
Built one for my boys to hunt with, now they need to get their own lol. I really enjoy the rifle.
Have zero need for an ar500
Do you mean AR50? AR500 is Armour plate used in silhouettes and body Armour.
There's a fairly new AR round called the .500 AutoMax, just a .500 S&W with the rim turned off.
No I meant ar500. Was replying to the saying I should get one. And yes they have ar500 plates too.
Yes, I have one, its a beast and a hoot to shoot, with the gas system and muzzle break the recoil seems to be about like a 7 pound 30/06, haven't hunted with it yet but I shot a rock chuck with it summer before last, it had the same results as hitting a gallon can of red paint. Same company (Big Horn Armory) makes a lever action that shoots the 500 Smith and can handle full power loads. I also have a 50 Beowulf (bought it before the Auto Max) it operates at lower pressures and is milder on recoil but I like the Auto-Max better, I let my grandson (16) shoot the Beowulf, he loves it so he's going to get it for his HS graduation present.
