C-moon man. Google.

To make long story short, basically AR10 is 308Win and AR15 is 223Rem. Or actually 7.62NATO vs 5.56NATO, but they are close to same.

Primarily...size of the cartridges they are designed to accommodate.

The AR-15 was designed around the 5.56x45/223Rem cartridge while the AR-10 was designed around the 7.62x51/308Win cartridge.

Technically, the AR-10 existed before the AR-15. It was a 7.62x51 before the 5.56 was conceived...charging handle was in the carrying handle....
