I put one together not long back using the following parts, and it worked out very well for me. Depends on what you want to do with yours though. Mine is a small-ish, light-ish, (for a .308) patrol carbine. It's for defensive combat use, but only for close distances of around 300 yds and in, as I live in wooded, farmland area.
Receivers... Aero Precision with their LPK
Barrel... BA Hanson 14" with pin-and-welded Warcomp
Rail system... Midwest Industries
Scope... Primary Arms 1-8 with the ACSS reticle
BUIS... Troy with tritium
BCG... Lantac enhanced
Recoil system... JP Captured
Trigger... Geissele SSA-E
Furniture... Magpul CTR stock, MOE grip, MVG M-LOK
Weaponlight... Surefire M300 Scout Light
Leftover ambidextrous safety that I can't remember where I got...
Leftover scope mount... same deal... just happened to work out well.
Biggest thing to worry about is that there isn't a single standard like on the 5.56 sized guns. With them, due to the "mil spec" standard, (the fact that the military uses the platform) all the manufactures use the same dimensions. My .308 is of the DPMS style, so I had to make sure every part I selected was going to work with that style. Takes some research, but it's doable.
