I am in market for a DEPENDABLE when your life depends on it, Accurate, Rugged, Easy to maintain
762 x.51/308 semi auto that will be ready to answer the call if needed and possible hog and occasional deer hunting (though I usually use a savage 220 for deer). I also want a gun that can be carried into the field if needed (read light weight, but still 308 capable, so under 10 lbs), and prefer something with a shorter, manuverable barrel length.
I had a CETME; was way too heavy and bulky. Have a DPMS in 308 that I consider unreliable that I will trade/sell to someone who adores breaking down and cleaning AR's and dealing w/ FTE/cycle or is willing to always use high dollar ammo.
Looking at Springfield M1A's, Sig. 716, SCAR 17s, FN FAL and Ruger sr 762.
Please help.
