Doggunner23 Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I plan on getting a .308 in the next week or so. Saw one in SBR form (sig 716). What am I losing or gaining? Is it worth it or should I just stick with a 16 inch barrel? Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 McMillan sells a 12" sniper rifle (ALIAS). You should feel comfortable with whatever you want to build. Just don't expect the impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

george_995 Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 There is some decent info in the link provided, A friend of mine at work purchased a sig 716 pistol with the 12.5" barrel. I suggested to him that he have a BE meyers 7.62 flash hider pinned whilst pending approval from the ATF. http://68forums.com/forums/showthread.php?48573-12-5-quot-308 There was a guy on ar15.com who pinned the BE to a 12.5" 300blk and it brought it to the legal length of 16". http://www.weaponoutfitters.com/be-meyers-240f.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robocop1051 Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 COMING SOON.... OSS Suppressors have designed a new can that sleeves over a 16" mid or 14.5" carbine barrel. The proprietary muzzle device adds a little over 2.5" to the OAL. The suppressor adds less 4" beyond the muzzle device. This means you'll be able to pin a 14.5" barrel, add a suppressor, and only need once stamp.... AND you'll still have a normal length rifle.

Rsquared Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 7.62 SBR's are fun ass rifles to play with Dog. FAL OSW (11") POF (12") And the Armalite I built (11") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Just an FYI, pinning a can to an SBR (so you only need one stamp) is difficult since a front-disassembly suppressor is hard to come by. If your plan was to add a can to your 7.62, but you want an SBR so that you don't have 5' of rifle hanging out in front of you.... OSS might be your speed. If you just want a SBR to have a SBR.... DO IT. I shot R2's SBR (above) and loved it. Here's some snaps I took in Vegas of the OSS 7.62 model (This was an early model, and has since changed to look like the 1st picture above) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magwa Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I have a stamp...currently awaiting approval for my 300 blkout from DD. Maybe I am reading this wrong but if so sorry but you will need a new stamp for your 308 SBR each lower has to have a stamp .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doggunner23 Posted April 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Yeah...I know I'll need a new new stamp and it's one stamo per a NFS item. I was just asking is it worth getting a .308 in a SBR in terms of performance from the round (I'm not trying to shoot out to 1k yards or anything) or should I just stick with a 16in barrel.
