Point me in the direction of a decent ar10 rifle or build. Under 1 grand not counting the scope. Wanting to go with either 308 or 6.5 creedmore.

Mine is a DPMS. I've had it for a while. It is about as cheap to buy as to build. I changed barrels to an X-CALIBER. If you were to find a decent lower put a good trigger in it and get a blot carrier group at a decent price there are lots of good options to build from. I have a .308 and like it. It is a tack driver and has plenty of down range energy. You will find that the AR-10s have a lot of muzzle rise. I put an inexpensive brake on mine and solved that.

I have some, I would recommend one from Palmetto State Armory. I have the stainless barreled .308 and the 6.5 creedmoor and they are both tack drivers. Friend of mines son shot a stock .308 in a national match and won with it. You will save enough money to buy a better scope and trigger if you want.

I have never had an issue with Palmetto or their service. I had to wait on No-Beto lowers but they were a preorder and said they would be 8 weeks and that is what they were. I have done transfers for tons of people that have ordered stuff from them and everyone was happy. Not sure what happened with you.

I have ordered from PSA a few times , expect shipping to take around 2 weeks maybe 3 with holiday stuff being so busy but the quality for the price I have always been happy , and I had heard going int expect 2 weeks shipping.
they have all shot well.
ditto on stay away from cheaper than dirt , they gouged people bad during the 22lr shortage canceling orders and turning around and doubling or tippling the price and putting it back out of their site. if you had $X into inventory and you were selling for $x=20% and you decided to cancel orders with established customers who had already made payment because you saw a quick buck to be made canceling the orders and increasing the price 150% then selling the same inventory you already had sold that is dishonest and you deserve no future business from the customers you had made a deal with and backed out.

I have a DPMS Oracle...think it’s the bottom of the barrel AR10, but it’s a heck of a weapon. Let kids use it where we hunt. Adjustable stock fits any age and .308 takes care of any game and gives them a little distance. They used to use the AR15, but they’ve “grown up” now, lol.

Bought several guns/ lowers from PSA never had any issues. Ordered tons of parts back when Barry had folks running scared. Did have a few minor issues but never anything that did not get fixed.
Only issue I had was for the volume I bought they never cut me a break for anything.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!
