[QUOTE="henschman, post: 2007912, member: 4235"] I've been thinking about getting a DPMS pattern .308 to replace my M1A in the main battle rifle role... I have my eye on the Bushmaster MOE .308. I would probably switch out the 16" heavy profile CL barrel for a Criterion 18.5" light profile CL one. Then I would like to put together a .260 Rem semi auto sniper type upper for it as well, to complement my ongoing .260 Rem bolt action build. I like my M1A a lot, but I really like how I can completely build an AR pattern rifle from parts with tools I have in my garage, with barrel swaps and all. Headspacing and lapping the bolt lugs on an M1A is not so easy. And then there is the accuracy advantage, ease of mounting optics, modularity... the advantages are pretty hard to ignore. [/QUOTE]
