[QUOTE="O4L, post: 3945033, member: 24429"] Looking in the classifieds today I see one of each, near me, and priced close to the same. I have zero experience with the AR 10 platform but for ammo costs it seems that the .308 may be the right choice. I'm not planning on reloading either cartridge but I probably wouldn't be shooting hundreds of rounds per year through either one so that may not matter so much. I was asked just last week if I had any interest in owning an AR 10 and I said no because of the added weight and ammo cost over the AR 15 in .233/5.56 but seeing these ads has me thinking. I did a bit of research a few years ago for an AR 15 rifle for hunting and decided on the 6.8 but lost access to the hunting area about that time so I didn't start building it. So if a guy was inclined to add one or the other to his lineup of .223/5.56 AR 15s, for deer, hog, sasquatch, and maybe a little distance shooting, what would you recommend? Advantages and disadvantages of each one? Thanks [/QUOTE]
