    The SIG 716I TREAD .308 may be the best AR-308 / AR-10 type battle rifle for the money.

    It most certainly would not be a great shooter with the 12 LB trigger , hence the upgrade .

    Picked it up . Nice looking rifle! Fit and finish is outstanding. Can't wait to shoot it . Trigger is 12lbs ! I put a A2 grip on it and trigger upgrade coming. I will report back after shooting.

    5.56 becoming obsolete

    Crazy thread ! HA HA HA ! Nothing great to replace the .223 yet and the .277 sig fury is not going to do it. Still 10 years out to replace the .223 !

    Sounds good GLD1980 ! I will compare with other platforms for sure and be fair. Big fan of DMR's and AR10's. Had a Dutch AI AR10 with bakelite many years ago and have studied and used many versions of Ar10's for many years. Take care
