I'm in the process of putting one together and ask this question because I know there are limits when reloading for an M1A. It seems that heavier bullets don't seem to be a problem so are there any limiting factors outside of excessive pressure or magazine length when reloading for an AR 308? I don't want to beat the gun if I can avoid it.
In case anyone needs specifics here is what I've assembled so far. JD Machine DPMS pattern upper and lower, PRS stock, MIAD grip, DD rifle length lite rail, DPMS bolt carrier assembly. I'm not settled on the barrel yet but it will be between 20" & 24". I'm just going to be punching paper and ringing steel with it.
