I have owned a few 308 rifles and liked them all but the scar has been the best. |

I have owned a few 308 rifles and liked them all but the scar has been the best. Of those things all mine was is lightweight. Lost the tinnitus inducing brake and that smooth low recoil shooting goes away. 1/12 sucks for any decent long range bullets. The MWS blows all the battle rifles I’ve tried clean out of the water. |

If you don't have stashed a bunch of 308 I wouldn't bother. Go with the Ruger in 6.5 or 6 CM |

 Anything in the chambering is a range toy for me. I've always liked the aesthetics of the G3. Plus there's the HK slap. |

What city are you in?
I see you already bought an AR-10. If you are interested / in the market for a new SFAR or one of the other things used, there are some local possibilities, depending on where you're at. Lots of used, like new condition, M-1As floating around here lately. |

They had a new SFAR on the wall for $969ish (with cash discount) and 5% sales tax. Used M1As, a pretty beat up old FAL and some G3 knock off. Some Dudes selling some decent looking .308 stuff on Colorado gun trader too. |

So far, shooting unsuppressed, the APC308 is the smoothest (with a KAC MAMS brake I'm gonna have cut off), the POF is smooth, super lite and handy, my SCAR 17 is a do-it-all. Once I've put 1k rds through that POF, it might be my favorite, depending on how it behaves suppressed. The APC parts situation is questionable. |

While I was transferring the lower, I saw a buddy of mine at the shop. He bought a can.
He picked up his can before Kalirado let me have my lower. Now I'm 7.62 can shopping. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By ecgRN: Needs some things. And paint. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/21318/188835-3205746.jpg You could have done worse than a PSA AR10, especially for the price. Good start. My personal favorite is a POF P308 Gen4 with a fluted barrel. But then POF ceased production and ditched it for the “small frame” Revolution, which has not had the same reliability and accuracy, “but it’s 4 whole ounces lighter and 1.5” shorter!!!!”  Here’s a taste of the San Bernardino Sheriff’s Department’s experience putting 68,000 rounds through a 14.5” full auto P308: https://pof-usa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/AfterActionReport.pdf |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By PointBlank82: WTF? My SCAR 17S does .75 MOA with handloaded 168 gr HPBT Noslers. Did about 10 MOA at first. FN tried to blame the Smith Vortex flash hider I replaced the garbage PWS brake with. I told them to take it off and shoot it bare muzzle then. They did with the same result. Century Arms must have the sub contract for their barrel crowning. Either way…FN fixed the crown and it came back for some actual accuracy testing. Only thing it ever shot decent was 155 Palma’s. And that was after replacing the trigger and gas jet. It was still nowhere near accurate enough to be a DMR type rifle. Ditched that turd for a LMT MWS and been sub MOA ever since with zero effort. |
