Nice! I plan on using my .450 Bushmaster 16'' this year for deer!  :chuckle:

How are you liking that cartridge? I noticed that it was similar to full house 45-70 ballistics without the limitations of a tube magazine.

I'm really liking it! Extremely Accurate and fun!

I like that it's the standard size AR-15 configuration, and not as heavy as the AR-10's.  Can't wait to see what it does to a deer!  :yike:

Man I am tempted but to shoot that cartridge I would definitely have to be reloading!
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

Theres plenty of room for all of gods animals.... right next to the mashed potatoes!
