I ordered a new .450 Bushmaster upper receiver for my AR-15. It will be my new deer rifle. By an odd twist of rules - this is now the new hot ticket for deer hunting in this part of the state. It used to be shotgun and muzzleloader only - but they now rifles chambered in pistol cartridges.
I used a cheap single shot - CVA Hunter - in this new cartridge last season - and it worked superb out to 150 meters. I can frequently see shots out to 400 meters, so an upgrade is in order. The AR platform offers the best results for the money.
So - I want "pretty".. Which do you think looks best??
