I am thinking about a 7.62x51 non-AR10 rifle. How does the B&T APC308 rate against something similar to the more popular AR-10 pattern rifles like the SR-25/LMT or something like a SCAR? I have a DPMS G2 16" rifle with the carbon fiber forearm which I like a lot more than the overbuilt and overly heavy AR-10’s but, quality and support seem to be a chronic issue.
I am also thinking of going SBR with this one as well. The hydraulic buffers in the B&T products are reported to soften the recoil impulse significantly so, that’s another strong argument for the APC308. Having a side-folding stock is an important difference as well.
Who owns or has shot one of these APC308 rifles? How did it compare to other common 308 rifles?
TIA,
Sid
