rcnut Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Ok I am looking at getting a AR 308cal. at a price under 1800. what would be a list of rifles to look at and in what order. I will be hunting with this and would like to keep the weight under 8.5 bare, but am also looking for under 1moa. I know Stag has one under development, but what about DPMS, Armalite, Ruger, S&W MP, suggestions, opinions, all welcome. thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

washguy Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Rc the barrel produces a lot of weight ....dont be afraid of a 16" barrel....all mine shoot sub moa for fit and function Mega ma 10's are always my choice for the upper/lower :) Wash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaRKle! Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Even though I have a PWS MK216 and LMT MWS, the new DPMS G2 Recon has been tempting me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magwa Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 DPMS about a grand in a 16 inch barrel I have shot 1 hole groups with it , it is better than I am and with a bit of tweeking around 8 lbs...... don't let the nay sayers get to you .. now if you really like light check out the S&W M&P with the skinny barrel sweet. I hunt with mione have killed 2 elk 5 deer it is way more accurate than it needs to be for a hunting weapon as most shots are under 100 yards..... YMMV.

98Z5V Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 I'd be tempted to try that Armalite model that was posted, only a few days ago. Someone will find it and link it - the price on that was NUTS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98Z5V Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 ^^^ That's the one. What you're getting for $999 is insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unforgiven Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 For the money can't beat that deal for an Armalite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
392heminut Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 That Armalite is a killer deal! If I could afford it right now I would be all over that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 ^^^ Ditto. If I wasn't paying ALL the bills, that would be in my possession. Obama might have nailed it - pay your fair share... Eff that, that's a different story... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketch Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Right on you should buy the armalite! That is a good deal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsquared Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Damn.......it's almost as if all of you guys have finally seen the light. <laughs> All kidding aside. Those are some killer prices that they're putting out. I'm not sure (haven't done the research yet)......but that's probably a derivative of the former Eagle Arms branch of Armalite. A supposed "watered down" version of an AR-10. But in actuality......no real big difference. My guess at least. Either way. It's still a damn good price for a complete AR-10 (ish). I'd pop for one. If I didn't have my property taxes that were just due. And my car insurance about to be renewed (annual). And my daughter who has dipped into the dad national savings and loan for about 3 grand. And the ex who's also dipped into me for about 3 grand. All of this in about the last month and a half mind you. And, after the 5 (or so) AR-10 variations that I have......I'm running out of different configs to build. <lmao> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 I'm running out of different configs to build. <lmao> Bull$hit. Your feeble imagination let you down in your old age. You need to seek professional guidance - and here we are. If you can't think of something to build, then you're just lazy - but, we're here to help you! Spill your guts, dude, and tell us what your dream is - you just can't remember what that is right now! <lmao> We'll un-FUK you! :binkybaby: :banana: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsquared Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Well.......ok. Maybe.....just maybe I could think up some other builds. But I'm still out almost 10 grand in the last month and a half. Have no fear my man. I ain't done building $hit yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasyEJL Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Stop . <laughs> I have one of there 308 Lowers in my safe.that's probably the best place for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
