"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.

Easy to short stroke in a stressful situation. The old adage of manual actions being more reliable is no longer the case with these very tried and tested semi automatic actions available (until they were banned).
