I love my .308 AR. I had a .223 beforehand and the difference is worth it. The .308 is definitely heavier, but I can straight up annihilate some **** with it.

Here's one I'm building from Iron ridge arms. I feel it is superior to the POF in a AR10... IMO.

The recievers they make are the ****.

I got to play with the 308 at the range, and omg is it heavy. I was a little bitch shooting it. You will have work on the standing postion, cuz the 308 will wear you down.

Yea the .308 is a completely different animal. The .223 is fun to shoot, especially rapid fire, but the solid feel and better accuracy of the .308 makes all the difference. Not to mention you are throwing a bigger piece of lead.

To the OP, what do you want the rifle for?

RCC

POF builds great rifles. I would opt for the .223/5.56 as its cheaper to shoot and not nearly as heavy. I build my guns around 1 in 7 barrel twists so I can shoot the heavier bullets, 75 grain.The como is lethal on anything. If you are really in the market for let me build you one the way you want it. The LMR guys have seen my gun house and can vouche for the quality.We can even build a SBR ( short barreled rifle) to double the fun in a small package. Buying the parts and building the gun yourself saves mucho dinero also. Let me know.

What's the price diff. in ammo? Isn't the 308 a Lapua round? I have only shot an AR that was a .223 (custom Novesky).

+1 on the .223 over the .308.

My uncle has a .308 AR and while it is fun to shoot, I find the .223 alot more fun and cheaper.

RCC

308 is a winchester round ( 7.62 nato designation) 223 was designed by remington( 5.56 nato desiignation). 223/5.56 is 1/3 the price of 308/7.62.

He is a fellow Texan & one of the BEST in the business.
Here's is pic of my AR15, more of a long range setup will be adding a LaRue/Harris low profile bi-pod, NightForce precision benchrest 8-32x56 or another similar model, shoots 77 grain .223

IMO... .223 is the way to go, you can pretty much do anything you want with that caliber from target/ ******* off to small game hunting.

I'm a fan of building the gun. It's alot cheaper and you can build it the way YOU want it. I just got done with building my first AR, lol as soon as I change some things on it I'm going to start my next ar.

Hey RCC where do you get your parts for building your own?? You have a connection somewhere to get good deals?

RCC

It depends on what Im looking for. I buy some of the parts such as lowers from spikes tactical, rock river and I buy alot of parts off of gunbroker.com, there are some really good deals there if you know what to look for.

you should step up to a fully automatic M4 that they carry at Academy. Its way cheaper then the guns on the links you posted, which makes it a no brainer. Plus, its made by Soft Air so you know its good quality.
