| So..I'm wondering if I need AR-10 parts for .260 rem. If so, where the he'll do I find parts to build? I see armalite is the o to folk but I don't know what lower to use or anything...I know my buddy is pretty interested too. |
| I am having Scott at Specialized Dynamics build me one. Yes you need the large platform (AR-10) parts. You can use whatever you want to choose but I would use a lower that you can use the magpul Pmags in as they are handy. I am using Specialzed Dynamics lower but a DPMS and several others use the Pmags as well. If you go with an Armalite lower you will have to use Armalite mags only.. |

I/m interested in a 260 Remington or a 7-08.
From what I've read about the 260 Rem/7-08 are necked down 308 Winchester casings; in which case the only thing different between it and a 308 AR is going to be the chamber/barrel. BCG, and all of the remaining 308 AR parts can be used. Is this correct? If so, where do I buy a 260 or even a 7-08 barrel? [Edited] Black Hole Weaponry has barrels, anyone else make barrels for either of these calibers? |

Quoted:
Anything with a 308 parent case just needs a barrel. Building is fun, but you could buy a 308 are shoot it while having a barrel cut. Then sell the barrel to subsidize the other. Just a thought. Enjoy it either way. The 260 is an awesome round. That's it? Well damn best thing I've heard thank you |

most bbl makers that carry an AR line will have a .260 barrel.
DPMS offers a built .260 rem as well as just the bbl's if you have the money I would highly recommend the Krieger barrel. its well worth the money. and yes, the only differance between a .260 rem and a .308 win is the barrel on the large platform AR's |
