One of the guys I am going with is putting together one of these. Probably not a great choice for me because I'm not a handloader, and I usually favor common calibers. Appreciate all the feedback guys. Someone mentioned the Seekins Havak rifles and those look pretty nice. I was thinking...

How bad is a brake in a hunting situation? As far as destruction of the ears.

In my profile picture I'm skipping water on the Allagash, I'm not sure how you determined I'm "from the city". Maine definitely isn't the city. It is a guided hunt though, I don't consider myself a great hunter and I've never been out west at all, let alone have a clue how to hunt there...

Most likely yes. One reason I'm a bit leery of buying a super lightweight 300 WM. I really don't like magnums that much and unlikely I will need it again anytime soon.

I haven't been studying rifles much the past few years so I'm way out of the loop. I'm signed up for an elk hunt next year in Montana, but I'm from the east coast. I was thinking about trying to build a 300 WM bolt gun, maybe in a chassis. I also...

I really don't have anything that will work. I've done all my other hunting with 308 on the east coast. I usually carry a 16" DPMS G2 308.

At the risk of hijacking the thread, what are they running for ammo in the SCAR-H's? I was thinking ball ammo.

Score another one for Team Douchenozzle.

Where is Cobracutter when you need him?

I understand if you're reloading for precision. But for a carbine role...why couldn't you get this 12.5" 308 SBR to run on XM80?

Seems to me if you're not a reloader, and you don't want to spend your life picking up brass, the 7.62x51 is a lot easier to acquire than all these boutique calibers you guys love to talk about that fit in the AR15 platform. Perhaps I am uneducated though; I haven't spent much time studying the...

The SCAR is a good choice if you want to run around with the gun, shoot from different positions, etc. The POF or any of these other 10 pound guns without optics or magazine are going to be quite a workout to do anything with besides lay on the ground. Not saying it can't be done, just that it...

75 FPS sounds like a lot for 2".

I'm just waiting for Cobracutter to fix his broken sig link finally.

What bearing does Freedom Group have on this history?

The heavier bolt does seem counter intuitive to the SCAR's lower recoil.

What recoil mitigation does the SCAR have besides a brake?

I never said that. What I would like to see is these holy grail of mil spec companies come out with something lighter rather than pumping out more 9 or 10 pound large frame AR's, wouldn't you?

I don't think it's a problem, but how much are you buying Wolf for? For around .60 cents per round you can find brass stuff.
