I know there is an AR thread with 1000 pages on this...

but i would like some insight on these .308 ARs

Thoughts on these:

Sig 716 Patrol

S&W M&P 10

DMPS GII Recon

Remington R25

It's a niche market, for sure, the whole AR10/LR308 set is less popular because of cost, primarily. I'm also looking at a .308 in the next 18 to 24 months. I haven't ruled out an AR-10 or M1A at this point, but of your selection, I would lean Sig or M&P 10. H&K makes some fantastic products in this caliber, but they are typically priced "well" upmarket.

Don't overlook the Armalite AR 10's. The AR10A or DEF10 series are extremely well made rifles for the money

Best value and accuracy potential from what I've read and seen.

For the cost of getting a good supply of Armalite magazines to outfit an AR10 I would be half way to the cost of a PTR91 and 10-20 mags.

If you got OB baller status you should skip those and get a Nemo executive order. So sexy.

Go ahead and rule out the DMPS and the Remington.

Decide whether you want DI or gas piston, then use that to choose between the Smith and the Sig

M&P10 gets my vote

To get bac on topic, I wouldn't over look the Armalite Tac series rifles. The offer a great value to the consumer IMHO.

Keymod hand guard
Ambi lower
AXTS charging handle
Adjustable gas block
Magpul butt stock, pistol grip, and MBUS
And no more proprietary mag.

Price will range from 1600-1700 from what I've seen depending on barrel length (16,18,20")
