FIRST AR 308 OPTIC 4 THIS DUMMY... ???

[JohnnyChingas007]

Hello Community!!!

Well I have switched out a few parts and here and there for this build. I would like some feedback as to what type of ammo I should run on rifle. I just picked up the Sig Sauer Tango 4 3-12x42mm MRAD Illuminated Reticle scope. Sig is going to make me some free Sig Ballistic Turrets for me but I really don't know which ammo to use for this build. My initial thought was to run the Federal 168g. I just wanted some feedback and recommendations. Thank you all and all input is appreciated. God bless!!!

Here is the list of parts so you can have an idea what I am using...

18" 308 Faxon Heavy Fluted Mid Length Barrel 

308 Mechforce Muzzle Brake

.750 SLR Sentry 7 Adjustable Gas Block

Mid Length Black Nitride Gas Tube

Rubber City Armory 308 Nitride BCG

Geissele SSA-E Trigger Group

XLR Industries Tactical Carbine Stock

JP 308 Silent Captured Buffer/Spring

Sig Tango 4 3-12x42mm MRAD Illuminated Reticle

Thank you sir!!! Proud of myself picking everything out. I went with the sig because I got it for $550 OTD when it retails at $750. From your experience what grain of round do you recommend for this setup?

Depends on what works best for your rifle. Trail and error. On the heavy end 168 gr. might work.
