I am looking for a general purpose 308 rifle. I would like it for hunting hogs and deer. I want to "play" with it, meaning change out parts, take it to the range, take family and friends with me and let them shoot it.
I've shot a few 308's including a Mossberg ATR, a Remington 700 (I think) and an FN Scar. Of the three, the Scar felt the best, but the owner admitted he had done some "work" to his Scar. I like the Remington bolt action compared to the Mossberg.
Having built an AR15, I want something that will put me in "the club" meaning, lots of parts, customization, etc.
I read about the Remington recall but it seems like a good number were replacing their triggers which is something I'd probably do as well.
I'd like to hear your thoughts about a general purpose 308.
