Hello all, I'm new here but I've been lurking here and over at AR-15forums for awhile, researching what I would want in an M-4gery style 308 cal.
I would love to hear any experiences regarding the various AR-10 types. RRA is coming out with one soon in 308 cal, and I look forward to it. I have a friend involved in procurement for the USMC, he said that the rifles he got (cannot remember which specific maker) to test came with a spare bag of bolts, they were that failure prone.
What I am looking for specifically is:
1 which type of magazine (metric or inches) should I want
2 which maker is best for reliability
3 is a chrome bolt/bore going to be neccessary with the 308 cartridge
4 does anyone make a superior BCG for any of the 308's
5 what should I be looking for as far as rate of twist (1:10 or other)
6 7.62 nato or 308
Any informed opinions would be appreciated, thanks.
