Of course, this is coming from a guy that is liable to build another rifle or pistol if he has too many spare parts lying around, so...
So I totally agree with you to a point, I've got 2 more rifles in parts sitting on my shelves.
But for me, I have a 16" 308/7.62 Nato AR10 (ADM UIC10A) but after the LVPO and mount and some ammo I'm looking at 12lbs roughly, and I hunt with that every year for the last 4 years, its a heavy gun but I really love to tell people I hunt with an AR, and I like the versatility of it just not the weight. So having the same capability at some less weight, combined with the fact that I can swap out to a 556 and take a class with it to better familiarize myself with out remortgaging the house for 600rds of 308 ammo would be a benefit in my eyes.
