I am going to build yet another AR style rifle. I already have a stripped lower and a few misc parts laying around. I have a .223 and a 300BLK so those are out. I am looking to build something else and don't really know what to build. I reload so that's not going to be issue for me.
I have been looking at 6.5 Grendel, 6.8 SPC, 7.62 x 39 and 450 Bushmaster to name a few. So I thought I would ask for wisdom from all mighty Aldeer to get some insight.
I would rather be tried by 12, than carried by 6.

I had a 6.8SPC for awhile. It's very interesting to me due to the fact that it's .270 bullet. I liked the fact that I could shoot the same Hornady 120gr. SST in an AR platfrom, but with much less FPS.
To each his own though...especially if you reload.
A mans got to know his limitations.

Choices choices. I hear what your saying valley dawg about range. I'm going to use the 308 I got from your for range.
I just want a gun gun to shoot and something different. I am worried about the Grendel getting phased out, the 6.8 will reach out a bit.
I would rather be tried by 12, than carried by 6.

I have a 6.8 that I really like. S&B FMJ ammo has gotten cheap enough to buy in bulk and use the brass to reload. I haven't shot it suppressed yet. I'm interested to see how it sounds vs. 5.56.
