"You don't need an AR to hunt down a deer" - Government.

Also Government - "Our Conservation Officers NEED AR-10s as they're the best tools for the job for deer/wildlife management".

To extend on the point of "you don't need an AR to hunt deer"

The government hiring zew Zealand and american sharp shooters with AR-15's to cull deer on an island in BC, complete with 30 round mags, and suppressors, from helicopter. The program costed millions and many hunters said they would gladly fill extra tags to help the cull, they were denied

Yup and the Gulf Islands are still having an overpopulated deer problem all the way to Haida Gwaii. This Gov’t likes to waste tons of money, point fingers, and make zero sense of anything.
