Am I stupid to consider building an "AR10" in 7mm-08? I have another rifle in the house (bolt action hunting rifle) in 7mm-08 for others the family (kids). I do reload. I do not want to have another caliber around the house to buy factory ammo for and to learn a new load for. It would be easier for me to just have my AR in 7mm-08 as opposed to 308.
I am aware that finding a barrel in 7-08 for an AR is difficult, but I have seen some and I would not be opposed to having a custom one done.
The purpose of this rifle will mainly be a range gun, for some long distance shooting (ie. 300 yard at least). And though there is a lot of Factory 308 out there, and a lot of match grade, I think the 7-08 has it's advantages too.
