Most wouldn't consider a 12.5" BANSHEE a tool for the hunter, but when chambered in 8.6 BLK it becomes a no brainer. Carrying on the AR15's reputation for modularity, CMMG builds their larger caliber rifles like .308 WIN, 6.5 Creedmoor, and now 8.6 BLK, on CMMG's Mk3 (AR-10) size platform, which is based on the LR-308/DPMS Gen 1 high-pattern design.
