The AR-15 has been around for more than 50 years, and in those decades it’s enjoyed many improvements and a variety of uses. Today the AR-15 is a great option for everything from plinking to hunting to home defense. If you use yours for hunting varmints, you need to make sure you keep it loaded with the right rounds. As tempting as it may be to hunt varmints with target rounds, it’s a far wiser and more humane choice – and safer – to use expanding rounds.
