I got to fire both of these at a range day in Dresden, Maine a few years ago. I own two SCAR-L’s but hadn’t ever fired the H variant or the HCAR. The HCAR was a phenomenal rifle, I expected it to be much heavier than it actually was and it’s accuracy was absolutely out of this world. I’m not a firearms expert and my only real world experience was during my time with the 82nd 1st/504th as an 11B from 04-08, but in my amateur opinion the HCAR is a very well engineered weapon and I would be very confident fielding it in a gunfight.

[@edbecka233]

As for which one I'd pick, I'd go with the H.C.A.R. mainly because it is a modern take on the good ole BAR my great grandfather would've used back in World War 2. I don't have anything against the .308 cartridge, let alone the SCAR 17, but the 30-06 cartridge (in my honest to God opinion) is slowly becoming more of an underrated bullet caliber. That and you have all the modern day modularity to make it work for whatever you want to use it for... just like the AR-15.

I'd have to pick the HCAR because I modernized a Garand some years back and the updates the manufacturer has done to derive the HCAR from the BAR are very similar to my Garand's updates.

Hey Scott, I agree with you on H.C.A.R. My Grandpa and Dad brought me up using the 30-06. Nothing against the .308, just prefer the 30-06.

I'm loosing lots of sleep watching KB. Only sort of recently discovered Scott's channel, so when I watch one episode there is always another I haven't seen. He never fails to entertain, aside from the weapons Scott makes me laugh out loud. I think that his ability to make viewers feel that they are really part of each video is awesome. Just checked Scott's clothing site and it seems that items can be shipped here to Australia. For definate going to have to order some gear to wear around the town I live in. We're not crazy but lots of gun nuts around. I'm not complaining about our gun laws because it's not that difficult to obtain a licence, just join a club.

Anyway, long rave, just wanted to say that Scott makes my day ( especially the shitty ones)!

[@madams117]

I'd go with the HCAR. I've always preferred 30.06 over .308. Mostly due to my love for the Garand. I'd also go with the HCAR because the BAR is a beast. I've been fortunate enough to shoot an original BAR in full auto and it was so awesome.

[@richardvoss77]

As a battle rifle and not considering range the HCAR seems like the clear victor here, did my ears and math decieve me cause it sounded like the HCAR had a 25 round magazine. What i would like to see is a ballistic dummy test between the two and see which one causes more damage per round. If range is a factor the ergonomics of the SCAR seems like it will lend itself to a more comfortable prone stance. However the HCAR with the trigger pull, and recoil reducing features seems like it would be the victor again as the more accurate of the two. From a loadout perspective it seems the SCAR potentially wins this as the platform is lighter, yet when loaded down with say 100 rounds you would need 5 mags on the SCAR to only 4 of the HCAR which means the HCAR while weight is the issue the added benefit of freeing up a pouch could mean better mobility and/or any number of other variations.

[@marchanson5935]

Sounds like an unfair advantage but it’s not because the ammo variety of the .06 is a feature that benefits you. If you need the damage a 220 grain 30 cal bullet gives you then it’s simply a feature the Hcar has that the Scar does not. Doesn’t make it an unfair advantage right? Therefore the ballistic gel test needs to be with high, mid, and lowest bullet weights available for each.

[@ryanj610]

.308 and .30-06 ball ammunition are pretty much the same, ballistically; with thirty-ought holding slightly more energy at extreme range. For the weight/capacity savings, .308 is a clear winner. If you want ammo variety or civilian legal AP rounds, .30-06 is the easy choice.

[@JosephDawson1986]

He may have loaded only 25 but the HCar does come with 30 rd magazines unless you live somewhere with a capacity law.

[@raoulchapman7310]

Generally speaking, with standard ball ammo there is really no advantage to the '06. However, once you increase the bullet weight beyond 170 grains the '06 has a very clear power advantage.

[@LB_Amerijuanican]

H.C.A.R, personally like hunting with 30-06 especially if in medium to heavily wooded areas. To me the 30-06 seems to deflect less on small twigs, and leaves in its path continuing to plow forward straight to target better than .308. If doing closer ranged brush hunting, good ol' lever action 30-30 with or w/out scope never lets down haha.

[@YungFudd1776]

Thinking of the practical application for the HCAR, I think the name says it all. If you were to be in a fortified position and have your sole mission be to repel enemy attacks, it would be quite viable. You would have range to compete at long distances, better suppression (from a sound perspective), and turn what would be cover against a 5.56 into concealment from the 30-06. You wouldn't want to be mobile with that beast, but in a fortified position, it would be quite viable (maybe even extremely effective).

[@iowasucks9494]

I know its been quite a while but what you say is still super true. This is probably one of the few firearms that excels in what the name implies. I mean how many guns have cool names that cant do what it says it can do? Like the failed street sweeper shotgun. Cant sweep a street if it jams after 2 shots.

Did you get to shoot it ? How was it ? I want to grab one of these guys for my collection !

[@HighGear39]

@@marku123 I have been able to shoot it one time. I had a back surgery right after buying it and am on a lifting restriction for another month. I took it to an indoor range to get the 1x6 LVPO sighted close so I can take it to zero at 100 in another month. It is extremely loud and I think I angered the old men with their .22 bullseye pistols. It piled rounds into a single hole at 25, we will see at longer ranges but it seems to be very accurate. I had some trouble with the bolt locking open. The gun uses a pawl then pokes through a hole in the back of the magaine. The bullets hold it disengauged, but once the follower passes by, it locks the bolt open on empty. The bullets I was using were soft point so their OAL is shorter and they moved to the front of the magazine under recoil and allowed the pawl to protrude. I need to get some FMJ or load to a longer OAL with SMK's in the future. Overall it is super cool and a neat / rare addition to my collection. Is it practical? Nope, but it's fun to have.

For me, the Scar. Having handled both rifles, the scar is lighter and I’ve never had malfunction out of it. It has eaten every ammo I’ve fed it from dirty surplus to match. 308 is more plentiful and cheaper than 30.06 where I’m at as well.

[@PALACIO254]

Sounds reasonable

[@ToAstYNaChO]

I hear way too many stories of SF dudes ditching the scar. id pass.

[@caileanmacanndraigh8580]

Hi from fife Scotland. Given the choice as much as I like both rifle systems. I would choose a 30.06 as it’s more versatile round. Ohio ordinance rifle does not have a reputation for destroying optics. As a former scar user that was a real and serious problem My son and I love your videos. You never disappoint

[@garykappes4654]

I'm into guns and own a far amount of them BUT I never heard of the H.C.A.R. It sounds interesting. I had a SCAR 16s for awhile. It was cool but not cool enough to be worth it's price tag! My concern would be spare parts and factory support for the HCAR. I love my M1 30-06's and the various 7.62x51 MSR that I own. I for sure am going to do some reseach into the HCAR.

[@lukegottler3469]

Know this is gonna be a sick vid just like every other your content is amazing you always make my day better

[@MoMrGod]

SCAR. As a left handed shooter I really like the reduction in gasses from the ejection port. It seemed from the shots seen in this clip, there was a bit more in the HCAR. Both looked very fun to shoot though.

[@virtualfpv3568]

While I think the SCAR is likely more effective especially in a tactical environment, I'd still go for the HCAR for the simple reason of 30-06

[@SirNC89]

30-06 impresses me because it was designed for 1,000 yard kills and works very well.

[@0326Vet]

It's hilarious seeing most people believe this being someone who used the SCAR overseas i can tell you it was dogsht, the Armory could never clean them right or at all so they jammed all the time, they're shaped really weird and are pretty bulky, and the gas system always had problems, if the HCAR has even a shred of the BAR's battle reliability it'll be 10 times the weapon the SCAR is on the battlefield

[@TommygunNG]

@@0326Vet Didn't you do your own 10-level cleaning?

[@TommygunNG]

If ammo supply/interoperability is not an issue, going with '06 has a logic in a set-position situation--getting the most out of every round. Otherwise, you're right, 7.62 NATO is tactically superior.

[@0326Vet]

@@TommygunNG i did nobody else did

[@SuperMickelsen]

Got to go with the HCAR. Lot more history behind it, plus looks more badass the the SCAR-H

[@davidlindemuth6182]

That’s a tough choice. I love the SCAR. I’d go with that because.308 also will work in my AR10

[@brandon_crow1291]

Oh I'd absolutely go for the HCAR. Good long range round, bascially a modern BAR and flat out looks like something out of a video game. The SCAR is cool but if I'm gonna go for a more AR platform I'd rather go for like an M110 sort of thing.

[@buckberthod5007]

Scott cmon. You gotta find someone to make you a forced reset (or binary) trigger, like FRT, to make you one for the 1918 BAR, and for the HCAR. You need proper 30-06 full semi automatic!

[@johnenglish1710]

Ran rounds through a BAR a few years ago. Can’t wait to try the updated version.

[@tjey379]

It's been kind of long since you had two guns worth envying you for but with those two you done it, personally I love both of the rifles but I was routing for the HCAR and if I was punished to pick one I would go with the H just for it's looks but like I said love em both and yeah this was fun

I'am guessing that over 10million moose have been killed by 30-06... 🤔

[@906guy8]

It's only underrated to the younger generation of shooters because it's an "old" round and therefore isn't as exciting to them as the much newer 6.5 Creedmoor, .224 Valkyrie, etc. They forget that the reason these "old" cartridges are still around is because they work, and work well.

Thank you for producing quality HCAR content. FPS Russia and Larry Vickers are the only ones to have made some decent content, too bad about FPS Russia. I have been looking for this rifle for 6 years and was finally able to order one. Keep it coming with the HCAR

[@sebastienloyer9471]

As a secondary weapon. After the barrette 50. Cal

[@worker2004]

I'm guessing you shot neither

[@imhappyandyou.4003]

They're both amazing and really fun to shoot!. And the recoil of both aren't as bad as people think for their caliber sizes. But sadly they're both pretty damn expensive in my opinion.

[@worker2004]

Tbh, the scars are good guns for home or range use but that's it. They suck for military purposes or other abusive scenarios. Same with the FN 5.7. all that plastic is a damn shame for that price. Problem is, who the hell would buy a rifle that expensive to shoot on a range?

[@OvaHendrix-j4t]

I'd eat it for an HCAR

[@MentalGen-NZL]

Considering that I live in NZ, id try and stomach it for 1000 USD

[@speedlimit6869]

Hmmm 🤔…. Essentially they are the same with very small differences .. I would go with the SCAR simply because it is a little lighter, a little shorter, combat ready, modular and, I can shoot 7.62 ammo also… the short stroke piston is quicker too.

[@jacobsanchez9815]

Ever since Scott’s first video I’ve been obsessing over the HCAR, I could get it now but man would it break the bank 😭 I’m seriously gonna have to get one soon, I have a feeling there gonna stop making them and the price and rarity will be beyond my reach.

[@10mmfinder556]

Your attitude is on point!

[@GU4RD14N4NG3L]

Hands down the HCAR. 30-06 is a hell of a round and I just like the overall look of the HCAR more.

[@KiithnarasAshaa]

When it comes to .308 battle rifles, nothing beats the Roller-Locking Delayed Blowback though : )| It's just a shame that the stock G3/PTR/CETME all have punishing recoil (for the caliber) and stock designs. Straight buffer-tube stock and elevated sights make such a difference.

[@wiganfan3373]

When it comes to .308 battle rifles, nothing beats the L1A1 SLR

[@bullriderinwrangler1]

You want something punishing, try a Mosin Nagant M91/30 with a barrel cut down to 16 1/4", and no muzzle brake. I kid you not, this beast is similar to shooting a 12ga with 3" shells. It also bent my target, a 4" AR500 3/8" plate.

[@KiithnarasAshaa]

@@bullriderinwrangler1 that's also 54r and is just a little beefier of a cartridge. But, it's also comparable to those. 308 "pistols" with nine inch barrels

[@bullriderinwrangler1]

@@KiithnarasAshaa There is no .308 "pistol" that I would compare this monster to, lol. It seriously is like no other Mosin that I've shot before, and there have been probably a dozen before this one, yet I love them all.

[@IlNamelessKinglI]

The G3 isnt as reliable as the Hcar or an AR10-Scar. Those 3 are also lighter and faster to operate.

[@piggysleft]

Scar didn’t perform well during war time , HCAR went happily through ww2, with the updated hardware Ohio Ordnance should be proud of the product they’ve improved. I know I’d take the 30.06 over .308 , range and hitting power.
