You can’t go wrong with a weatherby accumark in .308 though! -Armchair General- "No man is entitled to the blessings of freedom unless he be vigilant in its preservation." -General of the Army Douglas MacArthur "I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major General and during that period, I spent most of my time being a high-class muscle man for big business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism." -Major General Smedley D. Butler, USMC - 1933 Pronouns: Sir/General/That Bastard |

It's not an AR-10. They build these Patriot Ordnance Factory AR's to last! Still watching video. Can barrels be switched to accept 223? Edit. Answered in vid Fighting guns aren't the best for typical hunting. #1 Optic offset is to great (height between bore line and optic center). Too heavy. Sharp edges. You mean the piston version? Yeah. The .308 revolution DI is Direct Impingement and weighs 6.5lbs. POF has a new ROGUE .308 AR-15 under 6lbs for 2020. |

The Weatherby Mark V has always been the crème de la crème for reliable bolt action rifles. Savage has improved their lineup massively over the last 10-15 years and are a very close 2nd place IMO.
