Thumper build

xjchad:
Finally finished building my AR15 in .450 Bushmaster.  Just in time for elk season.  Just need to mount the optic and sight it in.

Tim524:
 AR's are cool, I built a couple myself and they are fun to shoot 8)

Latimeria:
Nice build Chad!  Not what I usually see for an elk hunting gun, but it will do the job for sure.

Keep the reports coming and get out Pike fishing!  ;D

vdisney:
Looks good Chad, always nice to see your name on the board.  If you go, good luck with elk.  I haven't hunted since I moved back to S. Cal, I miss it

xjchad:
Putting all the parts together is most of the fun for me.
The 450BM is not a "normal" hunting round, but since I already had a solid lower assembly, it's a great, low budget brush gun.
I'm not a great long range shooter yet, so the 200 yard range is fine for me.  The mountains and thick, dark timber forest I hunt makes for shorter distances mostly, so the knock down power of this round in that range is perfect for larger game.  I already have a Savage bolt gun in .243 for deer and smaller game.  I'd like to add a 30-06 or 300 win mag someday when I have the funds.
