I've been very pleased with my FNAR--I know its looked at as kind of a beast but my oh my does it perform--its just that the mags are so expensive--it really is rock solid when shot from a rest--- shooting freehand is a bit of a challenge for me at my age

I handled a Daniel Defense .308 this past weekend. Not crazy about 16" barrel .308's but it seemed relatively light & handy. Spendy, too.  They also have a Ambush cammo model which has a 18" barrel. 8.6 lbs with 18" barrel. I expect it will be very reliable, how accurate it will be is a different question. tex, how spendy was spendy?

I have the Colt LE901-16S in .308 and have had no issues. It's just heavy, but shoots great.

That DD5 18" Ambush in Kryptek Highlander is a beauty. Cheapest I found was $2699.

Plumbing and ac repairs at several rentals have cured my gun $$ for this month.

I recently got a Windham Weaponry AR-10 and so far it has functioned well. It has swallowed 147gr FMJs and 180gr Remington Core-Locks without a hiccup and I have done a ladder with 42-47grs of TAC pushing a 150 Hornady Interlock as well. Disassembled the bolt and cleaned it once so far. Throws all brass to 1-2 o'clock but doesn't damage it. So far I'm happy.
