83107 Posted April 14, 2022 Report Posted April 14, 2022 Hi everyone. Another new guy here. Was searching for some answers to questions and found this forum. Looks like a lot of good information to be found here so I thought I'd join. There is a lot to learn about the LR 308 platform. I have built several AR guns and am finding these are different.

shooterrex Posted April 14, 2022 Report Posted April 14, 2022 Welcome from KY. Yep they are a lot different than the small frame guns.
Savage11006 Posted April 14, 2022 Report Posted April 14, 2022 Welcome from Ga! Some great info from very knowledgeable folk here for sure.
83107 Posted April 14, 2022 Author Report Posted April 14, 2022 Thank you for the welcomes. I am in NC. I have never owned a 308 and started thinking about adding one about six years ago. I wish I had done it then and not waited. Times have changed a lot in six years. This gun will be for paper and deer with nearly all shots at 200 yards or less. I do have a few prospects of some boar shooting so I wanted something with enough take down power to stop a boar. (we used to kill hogs with a .22 to the head when I was much younger.) I am going the 80% route so that will be interesting. I am looking forward to the challenge.

I'm also in NC if you ever want some local help. Welcome to the forum!
