The second one is a precision rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor that took me three years to gather all of the parts ($) for. I was really surprised to get half MOA accuracy from a gas gun. ❤️ I recently found out that Jon Patton of The Gun Collective built one almost identical to mine.

About the AR platform, (IMHO) easy to shoot, super accurate and new shooters feel success right out of the gate. Everyone we take to the range is on steel almost in the 1st clip.

@@Jesusprayerwarriorbw 308 is a much bigger round. Also known as 7.62 nato vs 5.56 nato/.223 standard ar15. The bullet weight on 7.62/.308 is 2.5x the weight and much longer cartridge. It is known to take game from bear to elk and even moose, yet .223 or 5.56 is illegal in most states to hunt larger than coyote game. .300 blackout is a heavy round with much smaller case length that I believe was designed to run suppressed but either way its about a 1000fps slower than .223 but again much heavier bullet.

Excellent Review and info. My first AR10 was a 6.5 Creedmoor build and took me a month of every day research to educate myself on the parts, what will work with my build idea, brands, mags, and where I wanted to go with the build. Definitely DO YOUR RESEARCH FIRST. It is not like a 15 build at all. But I love it, it worked out very well. The gas system have me a bit of trouble for a while. Low power rounds like Winchester white box would not and still do not cycle reliably without turning up the gas block pressure significantly. Also all ammo has a different gas pressure, it varies drastically, so choose a cartridge manufacturer and tune it to that and stick with it, or deal with the headache of constantly having FTF, FTE, Etc. Some of those rifles are beautiful, I didn't know about and love having the information. Thanks for making the vids for us all. 2A Everyday! 🦅🇺🇲🦅🇺🇲

Many years ago, I purchased a Winchester FNAR ugly camo. They are not made anymore I guess. You have to watch videos and take notes in order to learn how to break it down and clean..also time to crawl on the floor looking for that little spring that went "boing". There is a mass dampener under the fore grip. It is the great grandson of the BAR. Ok, step-son? It has a gas piston that pushes 2 flat pieces back to move the bolt. Gas adjustable. The bolt has a "catch"? on it to manually cycle. it's late.. It took a while to figure this rifle out. Sometimes wish I bought an AR-10! Sighted in at 200 yds, Most shots are within 2 inches. Long time since I've been to the range! Great video!

I want an AR-10 so bad, but I'd have to build it over a year or two to afford one, and likely need to reload my own ammo to afford to even shoot the thing. I only make about $25K/year, so until I find a better paying job, probably no AR-10 for me. Also, for a lot less, I can buy a Ruger Gunsite Scout. Sure, it ain't semi-auto, but it's also only about $700 for an used one, and takes common .308 box mags. Heck, the 5.56 AR-15 I built spends more time with the CMMG .22LR conversion kit in it than the 5.56 BCG, as even 5.56 is expensive at $60 for 150 rounds. Compare that to $50 for 1,100 rounds of .22LR. No point in having a rifle that I'll never shoot because I can't afford the ammo to train. I think that's where the AR-15 really wins, because I can train super cheap by running .22LR through the same rifle I run 5.56, and as a new shooter, I'd say being able to train frequently on my rifle is far more important than making a bigger bang. I save my 5.56 ammo for shooting between 100-500 yards, and keep all training within 100 yards on .22LR. It's about the best a poor person like me can manage, and if cost is not an issue for you, be grateful for that, and reserve your sneers for the people who think guns are bad and should be taken away. Rich, poor, we're all unified in that our rights are NOT to be infringed. It's fine to tease once in a while, just don't shame us for trying, y'know? Better to have a poor with a rifle covering your back than an useless soyboy hipster in a Mike Bloomberg 2020 shirt cowering in the corner pissing his britches when SHTF.

And have you tried walking around in full kit with 20/25 round .308 mags plus even just a 16" AR-10. Yeah, the AR-15 in full kit is hard enough as is. I think the AR-10 should be viewed as a squad or even platoon weapon for civilian units, it you know what I'm saying. For overwatch and stuff.

what is a gym and weight-lifting? also, one center mass hit from a 308win, especially from a 200gr+ round will liquify the guts of any man sized target within the same operating range of a 556, which have reports of putting up to TEN ROUNDS, center mass before putting a target down. I don't have some cowadoody, gunfighter complex and I don't want to be engaged in a life-or-death fight longer than is necessary, so if I had to choose a KeltecRFB/ Desert Tech MDRx/ K&MArms M17s, all of which come with 20"+ bbls in 308win @ 33"OAL vs a basic b*tch 556 ar15 16" bbl carbine @ 36"OAL to end the fight in all situations from CQC to urban to brushland to mountains, I'd pick the _unmatched_ 308win/ 7.62x51 to make each shot count the first time.

As fun as they are, it’s more moving parts in a DI gun with a high pressure cartridge and the bolt carrier group is more mass coming home when it reciprocates. They’re therefore prone to issues like the bolt catch shearing off and lodging into the breech of the barrel, especially when shooting suppressed. I like mine a lot, but I understand why it didn’t immediately get adopted to replace the more simple M14. With lighter pressure cartridges like 5.56/.223 and .300 Blackout ARs are great reliable guns.

Ounces equal pounds, pounds equal pain. Also, you can ship way more 5.56 on a cargo plane than .308. Don't carry anything heavier or.larfer than you need. 5.56 gets the job done. When it doesn't, we have stuff like SCARs in .308.

@@Synergy7Studios Have to respectfully disagree with you Synergy. Soldiers can hump the extra weight. They did in WWII and Korea. And that was 30-06. Ballistics-wise .308 has more than twice the muzzle energy than the 5.56. That's what reaches out and touches your target. It may weigh a little more, but with that reasoning, why not use a .22 magnum then. I have a lot of experience with the 5.56 as you probably do as well. We'll have to agree to disagree.

@Philip Freeman Again, we'll have to agree to disagree Philip. You can carry as much .308 or 5.56 as you need and will yourself to. Staying on the subject of ammo our soldiers carried .308 and 30-06 before that. I remember those days (.308 that is). Have spoken with other military combat vets who, if they had carried both, preferred the 7.62. Besides, you probably wouldn't need as many .308/7.62 rounds to do the same job as the 5.56, all things being the same. Nope, you can have your 5.56. I'll take the .308/7.62. The difference in weight doesn't bother me one bit.

@@donaldpotter3071 You're just wrong. The reason for the upgrade is due to body armor along with still being lighter than 7.62. It's anywhere from 30k - 100k bullets spent for 1 kill, no matter how much you think you can carry of 7.62, you'll always be able to carry more 5.56. The Average engagement range is 100-300m, Afghanistan in an outlier, every other modern day war will be fought in urban where 5.56 and if adopted 6.8 is enough for the average solider. Stop comparing forces of old to forces of current, we shouldn't be regressing backward. They didn't have body armor in WW2 and the average life expectancy of a dude with a BAR was 30 minutes, should be go back to that as well? US forces work on fire superiority

@@donaldpotter3071 Touchin on the WWII and Korean vets portion; troops didn't carry that much ammo because they weren't issued all that much. For a Garand, your loadout was 160-180rnds. About the same for the BAR carriers, but they usually also had an ammo carrier as well. With that, I agree with the rest; 308>556 any day all day, period! Sure, you can carry almost double the ammo with 556, but you'll need that extra ammo cause it's not very effective in combat. Dense Jungle, it's easily deflected. In urban areas, it can't penetrate vehicles; if it does it shatters upon exit and might only wound your target. And it has no range and a small breeze throws it off target at just 200-300yrds. I've gotta M1A Scout for SHTF rifle and carry 200rnds in mags and another 160 loose rounds for reload. Only need 1 or 2 rounds of that per target!

A major reason why we didn’t adopt the AR-10 is the carry weight of ammo- over twice the weight per round vs 5.56. Also, the damage done by the 5.56 is better in terms of getting more op-assets engaged in injury support tasks, and effectively off the battlefield. 500 rounds is about 35 lbs, but also, the magazines and rifle are about 50-60% heavier. The extra 30 lbs for a carry really sucks on the typical 15 mile per day patrol. For personal or fixed positions AR-10’s are great, although for personal use I have moved substantially over to 6.5 Creedmoor for better distance, recoil, cost per round and accuracy over the 7.62, with just a barrel swap in many cases.

AR15 is so loved because low recoil pulse similar manner as 243Win favored over 270Win and larger calibers producing substantial recoil..! 308Win AR platforms averaging 1.5” longer receiver and normally 2 lbs heavier producing substantially greater knockdown thermal energy and longer range engagement capabilities..! Armalite owns Eugene Stoner’s Pre-68 AR10 patents and that’s why all other manufactured AR 308 platform versions are upscaled AR15..! As with all full-auto and semi-auto firearms typically over gassed for reliable function under extreme environmental conditions and user neglect can be retuned for lower recoil pulse, but requires regular preventive maintenance maintain reliability..! Retuned semi-auto rifles great for range fun and competitive shooting but unfortunately too many buy or build them for Go-To-SHTF self defense firearms. If you only range practice or compete with tuned low recoil firearms you will loose proficiency shooting Mil-Spec firearms. That’s why it’s important shoot both competition tuned and Mil-Spec firearms as demonstrated in video because under SHTF scenarios you have to ditch competition tuned firearms sooner that later..! After thirty years experience as NFA competitive shooter, RO, and Match Director the only firearms in my collection I had to preform regular maintenance and parts replacements are my extremely expensive tuned competitive firearms..!
