I dont buy the hype around the 6.5 for buck hunting. The 350 Legend packs a punch and is more versatile. Plus, who doesnt want to stand out with a lesser-known cartridge?

Honestly, why even debate between 350 Legend and 6.5 for buck hunting when we all know the .30-06 Springfield is the true king? Classic, reliable, and versatile - its been proven time and time again.

Sure, the .30-06 Springfield has a long-standing reputation, but dont discount the advancements in ballistics and performance that the 350 Legend and 6.5 cartridges offer. Times change, and so do hunting preferences.

Seems like 6.5 is getting all the hype, but lets not overlook the potential of the 350 Legend for buck hunting. Dont sleep on the underdog – it might just surprise you in the field!

350 Legend is definitely making a name for itself in the hunting world. Dont underestimate its potential to take down bucks with precision. Its time to give the underdog a chance to shine.

Honestly, I think the debate over the best AR-15 cartridge for buck hunting is overrated. Why not just use a bow and arrow for a real challenge? Lets get primal, people!

Using a bow and arrow for hunting may be challenging, but firearms have their own advantages. Lets respect different hunting preferences instead of dismissing them.

Definitely leaning towards the 6.5 for buck hunting. The 350 Legend may have its perks, but the accuracy and range of the 6.5 just cant be beat. Plus, who doesnt love a little extra power?

Im honestly surprised they didnt even mention the .223 Remington as a contender for buck hunting with an AR-15. Its a classic choice with plenty of proven performance. Seems like they missed a key option there.
