PSA PX-10 18" Mid-Length .308 WIN Stainless Steel 15" Keymod Lightweight MOE Rifle - 516446415

Reviews seem decent if you are looking for a semi-auto .308.

I'll stick with my FAL and M14 - they suit me fine.

A lot of folks swear by their 7.62x51mm AR's. I used to sell the hell out of the ones Armalite made.

That's the smaller frame version, more proprietary than the PA-10.
Might be a bonus being able to use more AR15 parts though, since most of the changes are furniture and the like, stuff you might want to upgrade later anyway.

I got a PSA ar10 for that price a couple of years ago. I despise the collapsible stocks on ar's so I got an a1 stock and spring and buffer and put it on my ar10. I really like the rifle now. Mine's been trouble free, shoots everything I've put in it and with the a1 stock is comfortable to shoot. Some have had issues with the PSA ar10 but that hasn't been my experience.

I built my own using billet Aero Precision upper/lower. Still need to resolve a cycling problem. I think the gas port hole in the barrel is too small. Don't recall the dimension as I haven't fiddled with this build in over a year. Probably drill the hole a little larger and add an adjustable gas block. Just been busy with other things like fine tuning my Ruger precision rifle in 6mm Creedmore.

Apparently, that 6.5 Creedmore is the bees knees. I read an article the other day that the guys using that round are wiping the field against folks shooting .308 and .30-06 rifles.

What I'd like to know is what kind of energy the 6.5 retains vs. the .30 at distance?

I've got a 6.5 Creedmore on order, same Ruger platform. The 6.5 is supposed to be just as good, if not better than the 6mm Creedmore, but with longer barrel life. I'm still figuring out the ballistics and drop stuff. I don't have a range beyond 200 yards right now, but would like to try hitting something out closer to the 1000 yard mark.

My son picked up a Smith & Wesson MP 10 in 308 a little over a week back, it was 899.

He went with it because of the lifetime warranty.
