I have been doing some kicking around of the idea of a .450 bushmaster upper for this next deer season. For the area where I hunt It can get pretty thick woods wise so a 5.56 just wont cut it. I have used a slug gun on drives and even carried my 30-06. Both are heave when the end of the day rolls through. So I really like the idea of something based off the ar15 platform. From a reloading aspect it's a strait cased cartridge so thats a cake walk right there.

Ive read and seen videos online of guys taking down Russian boars with this round and it seems totally devastating.

Anybody have any first hand experience with this round.

Also Guys with the ffl's any connections on getting one of these uppers?:)

Funny thing is I have a complete Factory built .450 Bushie carbine that I was thinking about selling due to my son wants to use my DPMS .308 instead.

Pm me an email address for pics and price if you are interested.

If you get one, get some reloading stuff for it, buying rounds gets expensive quick!
