Best mags for DPMS 308

[SAWMAN]

No such thing.
260Rem . . OR . . 338Fed . . take your pick.
Read up on the 338. Puts out quite a bit of power over the 308Wiin. Pretty much . . same speed with a somewhat heavier bullet.
You really ought to have one. ---- SAWMAN

260 rem. Thats it. No don't need .338. Trying to stick with standard calibers that are reasonable in cost and readily available.

After much reading im going to go with med height rings for the scope. As soon as I settle on a scope ill figure out if I need 1 inch or 30mm. Thinking about getting a fixed power one. As I don't plan on using this rifle for shots under 100 yards.

If you are putting this on a AR you need taller rings than that. At least 1" but 1.25-1.50" would be better. For 30mm main tube scope very slightly lower. Still >1.0".
There was a Browning 7mm-08 for sale on here that would be your "damn near do everything" gun.
If you need a 30mm Burris PEPR,I will sell you one. --- SAWMAN

And - - -> In the AR platform and unless you reload - - -> my choice of chambering between a 260Rem and a 6.5C would be the 6.5C. Lots more "support" for that perticular chambering. (Only reason) ---- SAWMAN

The rifle has the ultra high rail.( highest ive seen on an AR) Pic in here somewhere. Cantilever mount would make it chin weld I think. I haven't actually even held the rifle yet so I'm guessing.

Understood James. NOW I remember you posting a pic of that gun awhile back. Sorry for the brain fart.
I have several different sized (height) rings that you are welcome to try. Most are Burris Extreme Tactical.
Just for your added info. - - -> chin weld is what you do with a woman . . Cheek weld is what you do with your gun.
No need to thank me. ---- SAWMAN
