I asked my LGS if he had an SFAR. He had the 16" version in stock and handed it to me. When he let go and I felt the weight. I looked him in the eyes and said, "Put a Bow on it, because I'm taking it." An AR type rifle hasn't impressed me in a Decade. This one really impressed me. It delivered .75" groups with Federal 150 grain hunting loads, so it's Sub-MOA... and I'm betting with some Match ammo I'll get 1/2" groups. And with that Muzzle Brake they took of a WWII Hellcat Tank Destroyer... the recoil is Nil. It's a total pussycat. So far, it's been perfectly reliable. I love it.

Exactly why I purchased one to replace my PA10. I’ve only bought guns in calibers I can use somewhere in the field. Coyote, deer, rabbit, squirrel……

I have been using a Pa10 for the last five yrs or so. The weapon is great to carry and move around with in the woods using a 2 point sling. It’s drawback for me is the weight. My new SFAR is here, just waiting for FedEx to locate the FFL. FedEx and UPS have gotten so bad at delivery that USPS is far and away better. We have caught them, outright in BOLD faces lies. I’ve gone to them after a week of unsuccessful delivery attempts and picked up car parts at FedEx

I had been mentally designing my version of a bolt action scout rifle for a lightweight deer gun. And the the sfar videos and reviews started getting churned out. Literally the fastest impulse buy I've ever made. It checked ALL of my boxes except for being semi-auto. But then again, you can turn the gas completely off....so....I cannot wait for mine to show up at my local gunshop.....

If weight is the main issue, then this ruger is a viable option. For a slight weight penalty, the savage msr 10 LR 308 is a superior option. Factory side charge, true free float barrel, near identical size also.

I'll answer your strawman's question first. "Does something need to be currently produced to be superior?" Obviously not. Is a type 38 arisaka action better engineered than a Remington 700? Absolutely. Does it matter in a world of modern semi autos? Nope. Among all the attempts at a small frame ar10 or an AR-15 chambered in 308 win etc; None have captured the market for a variety of reasons. Dpms gen ii failed. Pof can't maintain qc. Savage failed for reasons mostly unknown.I assume poor metallurgy . Ruger is a massive company that has the ability to capture the market and provide standardization where there was none before. Time will tell.

"..an AR-15 in .308..." already exists. It's called an AR-10. It's older than AR-15's. I'm curious to know why he would describe this rifle like that.

It’s smaller frame and lighter in weight, more similar to an AR15, when compared to an actual AR10

It's a redesign to maintain the smaller size of the ar15. Its receivers are pretty much normal ar15 size.

The original AR-10 did hit this same weight (7 lb) It did this without a top rail or free float handguard Modern AR-10s are closer to 9 lb on average as they are derived from the "enlarged M16" type SR-25 design that stoner made (specifically the DPMS LR308 which is a reverse engineered cousin of the SR-25).
