I cant decide. AR or Rem.700

[sarduy]

Hey bro, i had the same question a while ago, i end up buying both, the Remington and a CMMG M4.

I would recommend you to get the Remington 700 SPS (Varmint or Tactical) in .308 for the kind of accuracy you are looking for, they can be found for $450-500 then add a Tasco varmint scope for about $80-$100 , and then save the rest of the money and get yourself a Del-ton kit for about $465 plus shipping, and add a lower for $79-$100,

estimated total for both guns = $1100-1200

I voted for the AR, but it was very close. I say plan on getting both.

Get the AR while you still can, I'm looking into an AR-10 even though I already have an AR-15.

I voted 700 but look at weatherby vanguard sub-moa!

chaim... I'm liking that 700... That cherry sunburst Les Paul looks mighty fine too!!

Thanks on both counts, though I actually enjoy that Seagull acoustic you can just barely see more than the Les Paul (I have thick fingers and it is easier to fret).

I still haven't got out with that 700 yet, but we're bonding OK through dry firing (I must say I'm really impressed with the trigger). Hopefully, I'll get out sometime after work this week.

Get Both In An Ar10...

Buy an ArmaLite AR10.
You'll have the AR.
You'll have the .308.
GET BOTH!

I had a DPMS AP4 with custom steel upper receiver in .308 Win/7.62 NATO. Off the bench the rifle grouped 0.25" at 100 yards. Cost: $1,150.00ish and $150.00 for the custom receiver.

I have a Remington Model 700 Varmint SPS in .223 Rem. Off the bench this rifle groups 0.18" at 100 yards. Cost: $515.00ish.

Choose your poisen.

DPMS vs. Remington?

Remington. Although I don't get that weird triangle barrel. I'd look for an LTR. Especially if you think you're going to tote it into the field to hunt.

I got a VTR in 22-250 and love it.
shoots 1/2 MOA off a harris bipod with handloads, The new accu-trigger is great, I lightened it up and it breaks like glass. the barrel is pretty cool, the muzzle break does make things pretty loud, really cant shoot it without hearing protection though.
I put an magazine extender on it and an NcStar 10-40x50 illuminated range finding scope, along with the bipod it looks pretty mean.

The black overmold grips on the stock are really grippy and the vented fore end, along with the barrel design cools the barrel down pretty quick.
I really like it, a good combo gun for the range and hunting...
