If I'd wanted to flesh that out a little bit, I would have said that the AR with 75 grain bullets or chambered in .300 BLK or 6.8 SPC makes the Scout Rifle obsolete. The fact that I can get a 6.8 with 30 rounds for the same weight penalty as a 5-10 round bolt gun makes the bolt guns look a little silly.
This coming from someone that actually owns a Scout rifle.
