Built for 3 Gun Heavy Tactical and maybe a little hunting. Started life as a DPMS AP4. Stripped it down to basically just the upper and lower receiver and sent the bolt carrier off to be lightened.

Re: Newish 308

Nice looking build out!

+1 on the MOE stock though...what are your thoughts/impressions thus far(if you've had any trigger time on this rifle yet that is)? Been considering the MOE over a basic A2 on a simple/straight-forward build I have in the works.
 
Re: Newish 308

I really like it. I've got one on my .22 as well. It was a good choice for this rifle as its much lighter than the PRS that I usually run.

9lbs 14 oz with the optic & no mag - exactly the same as my Tac Ops rifle in .223.
