I'm really trying to fact find on my own, but my ADD may be kicking in. I apologize in advance if my questions are frowned upon by the AR knowlegable folk.

What are the fundamental differences between the various AR Calibers? I'm sure in time, it becomes common knowledge as your basic hunting rifles.

It appears there is the basic plinking caliber in 223 and 556. Is that correct? What if I want to also use it for game hunting (hog, deer). Should I look at the 6.8 or 300 or 308? What are the differences in all mentioned?

So many options now. No idea how to answer really. If it's a shortish case, you can probably find it. Armalite has a .260
