Cool. I've looked at several dpms 308 ars. Think I'm gonna be building one before too long. I've had a cetme and an m14 and I really like that round. Have fun shooting. That 308 is getting spendy these days.

Is the 7.62/.308 the more powerful round?
dont get these confused...
a 5.56 NATO will shoot a .233 but a .223 stamped rifle will not shoot a 5.56 NATO...
a 7.62 NATO will shoot a .308 but a .308 will not shoot a 7.62 NATO
All NATO rounds are a higher pressure and a tad bigger than the rounds they are commonly compared with
Great units though! Happy Shooting!
Ive been talking with a dealer here in Iowa on a DPMS LR-308 SASS for a week now...great price but I think I may build a better unit for less money
Neither are full auto. The POF on the right shoots 223 or 5.56 and the DPMS is a 308. The POF was much more money and is a non gas function type gun, very clean.
I favor the 7.62 or 308 for its knock down power but the 5.56 is great as well. Everyone has different tast for dif reasons.
Checking into Super Sniper Optics as they are awarded the contract for our Seals. SWFA Riflescopes SWFA SS Rifle Scopes You could spend a grand and not do better.
Very good info! I have a BM59 model 62 which shoots the 308 but it's a 1960gun (Berretta) and I was not sure about the ammo and as you said below.. this was a NATO type shooter!

Some .223 guns will fire 5.56 fine. A lot of semi autos will and here is a lil bit why the chmaber pressure are usually rated so diff. But for all accuracy sakes use the round intended.

Wow...guns & ammo 101 for me. All I know is I have a Glock 23 .40cal , I take it to the range and shoot it...clean it...repeat cycle and all I have to do is buy the same .40cal ammo for it. So the ammunition these weapons can use is bit confusing to me. Thanks fellas!
