Hello.
I think this is probably the right place for my truckload of questions. If I can just get pointed in the right direction, I will be happy to read up on what I need to.
So, here we go.
I have an armalite ar15 in .223 I don't use for anything. I would like to know if it makes sense to convert this to 6.5 as opposed to buying something different.
I want to use the gun for whitetail, coyote, and groundhog. For shooting groundhogs the gun must be very accurate. I have shooting medals from the military and I was a 1000 yard competitor, so I can shoot well enough.
But I do not know much about the ar15 platform or what is required to make it drive tacks.
I did have a 458socom, just not enough velocity for me.
If this works, I will have a good general purpose go-to gun.
Thanks!
