"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".

I can’t think of a better rifle for grizzly defence than an AR-10.

What about a .45-70 lever-action? It's chambered in an even bigger cartridge while also being fast.

Fast, but nowhere near AS fast, and with something like that fast is damn near tied for number one priority. Realistically most people can probably squeeze off 7-8rounds from an AR-10 in the time it takes to get 3 out of a lever gun. Some may miss but that’s still way more noise, flash, and potentials holes in Pooh.
