For some reason I have had the idea in my head of building or buying a 308.
I bought a BCG during the Black Friday sales but after pricing out what I "want", it may be more cost effective to just pick up a bolt gun.
I even thought about just picking up a Rem 700 action and building up from there.
Just not sure what route to take, any suggestions/arguments on one path vs another?
I'm in no hurry, If I build I'll just keep picking up parts as I find them on sale.
If I take the AR route, it will definitely be based on the DPMS receiver configuration. There just seems to be a little more flexability there than the Armalite path.
This will be a range rifle more so than a hunting rifle. Does not need to be benchrest precision but would lime to have fun out to 600 yards or more if I can find somewhere to stretch it out.
I only have the one part so far so I am not really that vested in any option yet so any feedback would be appreciated.
