If you plan on hunting with it I say go for it, it'd make a great pig gun. If you're just punching holes in cans and paper you might want to stick with your 5.56 for ammo cost.

That said I got very bored with the 5.56/.223 at the range so I sold my ACR to fund a 1911 and an EBR stock for my M1A. If a bigger round puts a bigger smile on your face then make the trade.
