thank God for this thread. I've been back and forth on "SBR 308's for awhile. I've always thought a 13in FAL would be an awesome truck gun but not for the price. 308AR's are getting decently priced and, I know I'm about to get shunned to hell and back for this, but I picked up a Diamondback 308(oh God I know, DB!!!) and swapped the barrel to a BA Hanson 16in and topped it with a Trijicon Accupower 4-16. I wasn't expecting much from the gun for the price, but this damn thing eats everything I put thru it and with FGMM 168gr ammo, its bug holing at 100 and now that I've been able to get it out to 600, I'm damn pleased with the gun.
DB makes a 13in 308 "pistol" that I'm contemplating getting as a starting point and SBR'ing it to have that truck gun I've been wanting. If I don't do that, I'm just gonna build a 11in 6.8 upper as I've got plenty of that ammo for the 16in 6.8 hunting rifle I've got.
I still like the idea of 13in 308 tho. Something about 150gr .30cal bullet thumping away at the asshole who made me get the truck gun out just puts a smile on my face lol
