22 LR for Small Game at Short to Medium Range
The 22 LR cartridge is one of the most popular calibers in the world, perfect for plinking, training, varmints, and small game. For short-to-mid range hunting of game like squirrels, rabbits, and even birds as big as turkeys on the ground, 22 LR is the caliber to choose. The fact that recoil is virtually nonexistent and it costs less than any other mainstream cartridge doesn’t hurt either. All of which is reason enough to pick up a 22 LR package for the AR 15.
204 Ruger for Small Game at Long Range
As great as the 22 LR cartridge is for short-to-mid range small game and varmint stalking, you’ll want to step it up a bit for longer-range targets. Enter the reigning “king of velocity” the 204 Ruger. For a long, straight, flat trajectory, you simply can’t do much better than the 204 Ruger. That makes it a perfect choice for any long-range varmint or small game hunting.
6.5 Grendel for Deer Hunting
The 6.5 Grendel was originally developed as a military cartridge for the AR 15 platform with performance superior to the traditional 5.56 NATO and 223 Remington rounds. More recently, hunters across the country have discovered that those characteristics make it the perfect cartridge for deer hunting. What was once a relatively obscure cartridge, thanks to its great performance and AR15 compatibility, is now a popular mainstream option.
458 SOCOM and 50 Beowulf for Big Game
Then there are the big cartridges, like the 458 SOCOM and 50 Beowulf. They are some of the most powerful cartridges that are compatible with the AR 15. That makes them suitable not only for deer but useful for taking bigger game as well. Hunters can use 458 SOCOM and 50 Beowulf to bag elk, moose, and black and brown bear. Their size and power have also made them some of the most popular options available for hog hunting. Basically, if it can be hunted, there is an AR 15-compatible cartridge for it.
