My 308 ar-10 packs out light. Not much more than my 15’s do. 16” stainless barrel on the dpms g2 design. I wish my AR10 was lighter. It’s 13 pounds although I’m not carrying it around at all day either. Same. Very difficult to get an ar-10 under 11lbs with loadout. However, if society completely melts it in 308 (and only 308) will be what's thrown over my shoulder.

2 ar 15s in 5.56 and 2 in 7.62x39, long range here at the ranch is about 200 yds. on any shot due to weeds and too much growth to be able to see much farther.
in 5.56 I use the 62 gr. green tip for hogs, it does a very nice job in killin em.
7.62x39 I built for ammo costs and again, I don't have to shoot long here as most of my shots are 150 yds. or less and either caliber will do that well.

Friend of mine has a Savage 110 Tactical in 6.5 CM and that is a nice shooting rig as well. Here's my 10T in 308. And my Tikka CTR in 260 And my Tikka T3X Varmint in 223 And finally, if I really want to reach out past a mile I can always grab my friend's 50 BMG I have another target 260 that I built but the only pic I have of it is my GF shooting it at 500 yards.

I'll bet that Tika T3X loves some 77 grain bullets. Assuming it is a 1 and 7 twist.

My long range rifle is an older Remington 700 heavy barrel in 308 with a Simmons 6-18x scope. Synthetic stock, floated barrel. Will post photos when I can get good light.

Man ya'll remember back when it wasn't any big deal to go shoot several hundred rounds out of a few guns from the safe?

Yep, I remember those days. I still shoot a lot, but not as much as I was a couple of years ago.

I used to have pics like those above until I sold out to Bob in the white van out in the parking lot of the Wal Marx.

308 on a Weatherby Vanguard with a Vortex Razor HD, we have a 500 yard range here that I go to on occasion, but don't do much long range shooting. Killed a pronghorn at 500 yards +/- in Wyoming a couple years ago, that was neat.
