^^^I forgot to add, if you arent going the SBR route I would go with the 308.

Different tools for different jobs ( for me anyway )

I've built 3 different 308 AR's. One is a distance gun in case I want to reach out and show someone how much I care. It was built on CMT receivers and is probably the nicest gun I will ever own. The next started as a M&P 10 that I massaged here and there. It is for intermediate work and for dealing with barriers. The 3rd is a 308 pistol that is on it's way to being a 308 SBR. Why, because I could. With a barrel just over 13" it isn't particularly short but if you have to take a room hard it is your guy... and, it is a blast to shoot.

My 300 blk SBR was designed for home defence from the beginning. Nice and short and decently quiet when suppressed. I tend to think of it as a highly accurate, slightly angry 45 with great magazine capacity. I do plan on meeting a friend down Mississippi way to see how it will do on a hog hunt backed up by a g40.

Oh Mark, you just said four of my favorite words. Mississippi. Hogs. 300. G40. I know this is sudden, but maybe we should be best friends? Just think on it.

Hah! I've got to get the g40 first. I had one in my hands headed to fill out the paperwork when a little voice told me to put it back. The next couple of days we spent a few bucks unexpectedly so it all worked out but it is on my list.

I just turned my dirt guy loose on installing the septic system on the world's slowest retirement house build. Once I know the final damage from that I will be able to reassess the g40...

[WarPig]

I know the feel. We just moved in to our new house and I have been holding back my next purchase. I was on the ropes about that G40 but something keeps pushing me to that Sig 220 in 10mm.

It's that time to build or buy another ar. I've narrowed it down to these two cailbers. I need some help desiding. The 308 would be more of a investment I believe to get started into but it will give me more of long range capability. 300 will give me the versility of shoting subsonic if i chose to go suppress later on. I will also be reloading for which ever I chose. I would like some input from you guys. Also another thing is possible using them for hunting if anyone has expenience with 300 blk hunting plz chime in. Also if anyone has suggest one pre built rifle suggestion are welcome.

You can shoot .308 subsonic as well.

But will it cycle a semi auto?

Ehh, do something different. I'd like to see some 6.8 SPC builds on here. :up:

No.

[roverboy]

I'd go with .308 because, I've already got dies and also why waltz, when you can rock n roll!
