6.8? I love .308 ' s and want a 6.8 someday.

Make one. AR10 .308 with the right glass would kick butt. I love my Grendel, too.

I'll make it if you supply the funds? :chuckle: maybe we should start a gofundme on here for me. :dunno: :chuckle:
I could see it now , poor indian  need funds to build AR to unethicalY harvest many elk !

Well for sake of argument it needs to be a 6.5  maybe a dpms lr 260 with some good glass and BI pod .

Since you will be shooting an AR from now on, Might as well give me that 6.5  :chuckle:

Can't speak to other makes/models, but I run a DPMS Compact Hunter (.308) and it is a tack driver.

I just ordered a Rock River Arms 300 Blackout we can play with when it gets in. They are reasonably priced and make a 308 and 6.8 SPC gun too.

So for all the AR experts out there . Whats the most accurate off the shelf AR that a guy can pick up with out breaking the bank ? must be a big game legal caliber .

I'm certainly not an AR expert and I'm not sure what price point you're looking at but Seekins Precision makes some reallllllly nice AR's. 

Never owned one but on a little lower price range I've heard nothing but good about Rock River AR's, too.
