I’m guessing it’s more about the standard round that it fires. 5.56 or .223 rounds are built more for penetrating materials so when they’re up against a fleshy target, unless you hit them right in the vitals, might not cleanly kill and cause prolonged suffering. That’s not to say that the gun can’t be chambered in something that’s more useful for hunting but having a 20-30 round magazine for hunting is still a bit overkill.
Curious, how is hunting with an AR unethical?

Most states have a limit on how many rounds when you are hunting wild game, 4-5 max capacity.
