Thread: Lite AR10, Gen2 DPMS, M & P 10, 22 Nosler

Hey Gunnies,
Like the rest of you safe is getting jammed up but still can't help browsing next acquisition...

Started looking bolt-gun long-range calibres 6.5 X 284, 300 win mag or one of the Noslers, or big boy 300 Norma.

Then ended somehow distracted to these new lightweight Ar 10's, well not the Armalites, but you know what I mean, the ones that take AR15 furniture not weigh a ton.
300 blk, 6.8, and even the 6.5 Grendal just don't get me that excited over a .223!
The new 22 Nosler launching heavy 77 TMK and 75 Bthp look good too, and much cheaper option.

The Gen2 DPMS's look the shit and at a reasonable price point. I like 308, but then a .260 or 6.5 Creed in a lite weight rig would be that much sweeter.
Who's out there throwing one together?
Parts for a build look a little tricky to get at the moment, even then if you want to go a 6.5 are you probably better to grab a Gen2 in 308 then put say an aftermarket Lija or Kreiger barrel, adjust gas block + decent rail?

Going from a 308 to say a .260 Rem should work ok with bolts, mags.
Theoretically they say a 6.5 Creedmore works as well, 308 bolt/mag, i'm just a bit suspect on this one. Would be my preferred over the .260 as think will mag fit long projectiles better.

Interested in any feedback
