Corbon 62gr DPX specifically.
I'd like to hunt with my AR (5.56, 16", 1:7) this year to internally justify what I've spent on it, and I was wondering if anyone had any experience with that load.
Or, any suggestions on something better.
I'd ordered a couple boxes with the intention of using them for hunting, but all the packaging seems geared towards "tactical" uses.
I know the two uses aren't mutually exclusive, but I also know that I have the tendency to click the wrong box when shopping online.
What I want is something reliably lethal out to maybe 150yds, though 75-100 is more likely.
I've been extremely picky about what shots I take and, as a result, thus far I've never needed a second shot, or had to track anything very far.
Most on my neighbors are the same, and it's a trend I'd like to keep going, so I want to make sure I have the best ammunition for the job.
I'm already pretty self conscious about hunting with a semi-auto (particularly one so severely lacking in walnut), so the last thing I want is for all my neighbors to hear multiple shots coming from my side of the woods.
