Newbie from the hills of Tennessee - T-Bilt - 01-21-2024
Good Day... to the horde.
I purchased a PSA pistol lower and a 12" PSA upper... My intent is to start whacking whitetails with this set-up. So far, from what I've read, the 6.5G is the go to AR-15 cartridge for my needs. My AR-10 in .308 is a pig. I wanted a rifle that is portable, accurate, and deer worthy out to 300yds... thus 6.5G
I'll be trolling to see what I can learn from all the experience here. I won't have many post. I know what the search function is for... LOL

Welcome to the forum T-Bilt! There are a lot of good reviews on the Nosler 129 grain Accu Bond Long Range (ABLR) which supposedly expands to 1300 FPS which is useful out of short barrels. You can buy bullets and load your own or buy factory Nosler ammo.
Shooters Pro Shop is the go to place to find decent prices on Nosler products.
