Things are also changing for the modern AR platform. Advent of more powerful calibers, like the 6.8 SPC and .50 Beowulf are slowly turning it into a more capable hunting arm when it comes to the larger animals.
The caliber has always been appropriate for varmint control, and expected/delivered accuracy and precision for this rifle platform is also getting much better. A heck of a lot of groundhogs/prairie dogs/coyotes are probably taken with them these days.
