As bad as this could sound. A good AR15 with a GOOD 20" or 24" barrel, free float handguard, good trigger and scope would make a great ground hog gun out to 300 yards and a bit beyond. I do it quite often with mine on prarie dogs, and my scope could be better. I built mine, it takes a few specialized tools to build one but if you can turn wrenches halfway decent you can build an AR, and I find it to be a great stress reliever lol.
Mines a hodgepodge of parts but its only real limitation is me. Spikes tactical upper and lower, 20" BHW medium profile barrel, rifle length gas system, Rock River trigger, Yankee Hill handguard, and a BCM full auto bolt carrier group. Its a very smooth shooter
