As an Aussie I can safely say I am jealous of your freedoms!
Me too brother 👊 Brisbane here, where are you?
@@vandalistica SA, I've got guns but only bolt actions.
I went to a psychologist who won't write me a supporting letter so I can't even get licensed 🤷♂️
Perth WA... we can only dream....
@@vandalistica Why do you need a letter? In SA we just fill in the application paper for a licence at the police station.
DPMS is very underated. I have one and it has gone through hell...and still shoots flawless.
There's almost no DPMS parts left on that thing...
New stock, rifle buffer, new bolt, new handguard, new gas block, new trigger, new muzzle device.. lol.
It's kinda silly to call it a DPMS anymore.
@@calholli true but we do that to almost every AR. However, base is still DPMS.
@@kaox44 "We" ?? I sure don't.... Why don't you just buy a DB10 for $750 that already has all those parts you want?
@@calholli 750?! Nowhere I looked was near that price. I looked in 4 different states, too. My DPMS LR308 was 300 + tax. With a RR trigger group and rail...500
@@DatGuy960 Where did you get an LR for $300?.. I like build kits, I've never seen one that cheap. and Yeah, I bought my DB10 several years ago, they have gone up quite a bit since then, if you can even find them.
budget building is the way to go these days...the manufacturers do make good complete rifles..but nothing beats ar15 legos
Like Chad said you've got to be careful with those 308s with the different rail height, BCG, etc. I put one together and sadly it had some issues that none of my 223s ever had. Not quite as plug-and-play as the 223s.
@@bwillems1000 true a dpms and windham have same barrel nut. But a windham takes a Midwest armalite freefloat tube to match receiver and gas block height. A dpms has 2 rail heights. And so on
@DR Dan fantastic
@@bwillems1000 I just researched the hell out of it, went with a company that uses Aero M5 parts for their builds. I also checked out the barrel & BCG, the only thing I didn't do which I should have done before shooting was head space it. I didn't think it would be that much of a deal about head spacing, kinda had that AR15 223/5.56 thought in my head. I have never checked head space in any of my AR 15 builds, most parts where always purchased from the same company. That is what I did with my budget 308 build.
Pinger 556 Lucky you didn't blow your Face off.
AR10. SAR. SR25. DPMS pattern this, DPMS Gen that.
One thing that I found when piercing a 30hate caliber rifle for scope work is dont bother with a CAR stock, use an A2. Notice Chad's cheek weld, and eye relief. Another benefit of the A2 is a much longer buffer spring. It's been my findings that the longer spring takes some of the recoil away, and is easier on the glass. Good video.
Good for you
I have a DPMS Oracle AR-15 that has 5,000 rounds (a mixture of brass cased and steel cased) ammo through it, never a problem, no jams, no failure to feed! If you maintain your rifle it will work every time! I am sick and tired of people thinking you have to spend $2000 plus to have a reliable rifle!
Ive had my lr 308 over 10 years now it is an amazing rifle...heavy as hell but a tack driver!
Heavy is OK. In my mind, the scenario you would use this rifle is defending your homestead from the IRS before they get to 5.56 range.
Been using my LR-308 for hunting whitetail deer for about 6 years now, with a AAC 7.62 SD suppressor here in Florida.... Love it.
My 1st AR was a DPMS A2 format in 5.56mm. I have several but just got my 1st AR10. DPMS has been a very reliable platform without the inflated cost. Performance Matters.
I have the LR 308B with a 3lb CMC single stage trigger and it shoots sub MOA at 200 yards all day with 180 grain pills not so good with 150s I absolutely love it my brother
Just say no to red flag laws.
Also say no to the NRA. Only a sheep will actually believe that they are on our side.
@@case8987 But you are a tool if you aren't part of any 2A organization. Make sure you are a donor and active member of at least your state organization. Additionally, the NRA's grassroots newsletter is free, there is no excuse to not be subscribed to it.
Trump said yes to RFLs
Damn that jerry curl is unreal
Would love to see some more AR10s on RUclips, had my S&W M&P10 out yesterday. Thing is so fun making long shots, punching holes through 1/4” steel plates I get on eBay. The Federal 150 soft tip was making 1” groups at 100yds. 308 ammo is expensive but the guns are not. It’s makes a good big brother to your AR15 when you want to splurge a little on ammo.
Just bought my first ar10 LR308. At less than $750 very well worth it. Put a cheap laser sight-duel color cross-hairs and a red projection laser all in one. Very cheap at 59 bucks. I'm definitely no pro shooter here. Mostly hand guns which I mostly miss what I'm aiming at. Cept for my prized colt python which is very accurate. But for an intro ar...this gun is awesome right outta the box. Took 4 rounds to sight in at a measly 45 yrds- no more room- but actually shot a hole thru a hole on 5 and 6 rounds. All total with 80 rounds of win 308 ammo. + taxes under a grand. I do want the front grip stand now that I seen them work. Will fire another couple 100 rounds at a longer range and see if she holds up. But for now, way way worth the cost
Is it even a chad video without a suppressor?😂
The Virgin flash hider vs the Chad supressor
I'm not gonna ever get a suppressor
Suppressor are gay, maybe when I have a kid and they want to learnt to shoot
@@brandonfoley7519 nah Brandon you're gay
I have one of these and love it!
I also got the equivalent AR15 from DPMS and I can tell you, the build quality on the LR308 is far superior.
Love this channel...but my idea of “not spending much on upgrades” is WAYYYYY different😂
Peasant.
If I've learned anything from watching gun channels this month it's, "The soap I shower with is sh&*!" Anyone else always see that commercial before watching a gun video? :D
twjonckheere you’re probably still using the soap your mommy got you. Mommy’s lil man lol
@Knight-Sgt. Reyes 😂
I recently got my first LR-308 type. It’s the SIG 716i and I’m really loving 308. I’m almost comfortable enough to build. Love all of the videos you guys make
I love my lr308 Oracle. It's been an amazing shooter for a couple years now.
Slapped a yhm gas block on with surefire hider and warden a few months ago.
Just finished my .308 build, bore sighted and ready for the range this weekend.
Hi Chad, great video! I got my LR back when you could walk in to DPMS in Minnesota and build your rifle at the counter. Not kidding. They built and shipped my rifle the next week to my FFL and it's been love ever since. I topped it with a fixed 10 power Sightron cam'ed for .308. My max distance available then was 500yds and the fixed 10 power was perfect. It loves Seller & Bello 168's. When I did my part a 5"group at 500 was not out of the norm.(less a couple of times) It does not like 150gr anything. You can not get a better rifle than a Gen 1 LR-308 for any reason. It is an impressive tool. I can not say that for later rifles produced after they were bought out. Oh and I have 5 original factory mags and never a mag issue, in fact I've not had any issues with this rifle and scope combination ever. Snow, ice, rain, heat, it preformed if you fed it good ammo.
I would really like a comparison review of SUB $1000 AR 10s. DPMS, PSA, and Diamondback specifically.
Mine was less than 500 with rr trigger and rail. DPMS makes a great 308
Less than 1"MOA
Diamond back is an ar10
The rest arent
Some are half ar15 half ar10
In the middle
Lol @ this is a pretty entry level stock weapon - here's the 15 things we changed about it
These guys have lost touch with reality. They have grown so big that a 2,000 dollar rig is budget for them.
Nothing more fun to shoot than an accurate rifle. Nice job Chad.
Thanks for doing this video!! I just bought this DPMS .308 a couple months ago! I love it!!
Still rocking that jet black George Washington hairdo ..What a time to be alive.
I built a scar clone using a Gibbz Arms side charging upper reciever I love it.
This video could only be made in one place in the world! GOD BLESS AMERICA!♥️
Just built a PSA ar10. Fathers day sale, complete kit, 3 mags and lower for right around $500. No problems so far
Just wish P.S.A would bring back free shipping..
Please turn that into a mullet for the love of god Chad.
Chris I second this request
For the love of Chad, please don't listen to Chris.
Mullets are back in
Don't suppress your mullet Chad.
As a master barber I agree, I’d even do it for you
I’d like chad to do a video about his data logging for each gun. The process.
yes pls
Great vid. I've been looking into ar 10. I think you just pulled the trigger for me so to speak. Lol
Matt Church Check out Armalite’s Def10. They price has gone up to $1099.00 from $900. But I still would have bought mine for that price. It runs great.
I just checked out the DPMS website and they have the LR for $724.00. Can’t beat that.
Nice. Thanks man I'll forsure check that out.
I'm still not sold. There are some amazing rounds for the AR15 platform. Like the 6.5 Grendel, which can surpass the 308 in long range shooting. You can even get a beefed up upper/lower ar15 that can run 308
@@mrdgaf3393 Dunham still has them for 749. 3 weeks after the sale ended. Bought it on the spot. Ammo cost is going to suck but the gun still preforms flawless for a non rifle guy. If u haven't yet. Don't fear your wasting $$. Just my opinion...
1:50 "We didn't really put that much into it.."
* installs chrome moly barrel, Geissele trigger and scope mount, gas block, PA scope, OSS can, keymod rail, bipod, BCG, and swaps stock
For any lr308 rifle expect to spend at least 800 on a basic rifle. I built mine with aero precision parts for 850 plus optics, aero precision scope mount and 2 stage larue trigger
I believe the barrel is stock
I fell in love with .308 and get an adjustable gas block and the double buffer spring. Yr 308 has hardly any recoil.
All those upgrades and keeps the A2 stock... love it.
The M5E1 Areo Precision makes is pretty awesome. It's DPMS pattern but has a free floated hand guard extension where the barrel nut attaches. I'd probably go with something other that the BA barrel though if you want to make it run sub moa. You can get sub moa but the one I have has a very long throat and it makes seating bullets close to the lans difficult with higher bc bullets. I think there was close to .125" of jump with the RDF 175's seated out to 2.812"-2.815".
I would love to see an Armalite Def10 review. I bought mine for $900.00 new. It’s been flawless so far. Great rifle for us average folk.
I've had one for years,,very satisfied, very dependable,,, it will hold up against any scar barbidolls
Ahh that build is HOT HOT HOT!! Thank you. I’m impressed.That LR’308 that’s where it’s @.
Back in 2013 I had been working with DHS in Purcell, OK, trying to get Medicine Advantage for my wife with MS. Before we left town she wanted to stop at Walmart. I always make it a habit to buy at least one box of ammo if I'm somewhere that sells ammo. Upon arrival at the sporting goods counter I happened to notice a DPMS LR 308 they had for sale. I fell in love and bought it on the spot and I've never been sorry I did.
Deer season in my area starts in October. My AR10 is ready for some 30hate!
I'm building an lr-308 right now fellows. I'm running a custom Cragar stainless steel 22 inch barrel DPMS upper and lower receiver gun out in Flat Dark Earth cerakote, on SLR rifleworks solo keymod handguard 15 in. Young Manufacturing bolt carrier group in Chrome. SLR rifleworks adjustable gas block. Black Knight right rifle length gas tube. Knox stock with cheek Riser and monopod. Atlas bipod. Vortex Viper PST 6 by 24 by 50 mm illuminated reticle scope. Have not yet picked out my muzzle break as of yet just using a thread protector. I'm able to shoot three quarters of an inch groups at a hundred yards. Waiting on the muzzle brake to push it out to a thousand and see if I can even hit steel at a thousand I'm guessing I probably will be able to with the way this rifle is shooting. Great video would like to see more on the LR 308, sr-25 rifle platforms. Just due to the non mil-spec parts so that people can understand what goes together and what won't work on these rifles. Thanks a lot Chad, and once again love the hair. You need to put a quarter teaspoon of Soul Glo and brush it through your hair that way you look like Lionel Richie back in the 80s. Keep up the good work Fellas on the videos enjoyed it. Echo.
I've been shooting a lot of 6.5 cm from a 16" and 24" recently and I have to say it's pretty depressing seeing how much slower it goes for the same weight, compared to 308..... I'm at max safe pressure and with a 140, I'm getting 2500 fps from the 16" and 2700 from the 24". Thanks for posting your data!
i love the pa-rgrid. just hit after hit, got mine for 250 when they were still unknown.
Glad to see someone showing it off.
I have three DPMS AR-10 rifles and I love them!!!!!
What the best price to get into one of these ?
Jason Patterson They will most likely run you around $900-$1000 but there may be other options out there that I don’t know about.
Fleet Farm in the midwest had them about 2 months ago for $629 and they were overstock gen 1! I missed out on the sale by 1 day :-(
Hey bro- My buddy is selling his for $1000 good deal? For 8 mags and a case... thx!
@@jasonpatterson2258 Best price is to build from 80%. About $600 or less.
I built a G2 DPMS AR308 and just learned that there is a difference between a AR 10 and a AR 308. Not all parts are interchangeable. Can you go more into detail regarding the gas block.
Nice shooting, Chad. You still need a haircut, you freakin hippie. 🤣
Make Chad's hair great again! But seriously, I agree, he looked a lot better with this usual clean cut, although I understand the appeal of the John Wick hairstyle.
Hahahaha... my grandpa used to yell at guys with hair like his back in the early 70's, only he didn't say freakin'. Thanks for cracking me up!
I’m building a 308 with a PA10 gen 3 lower and dpms gen 1 clone. The fit is very tight. There’s no movement at all between the lower and upper. I’m paring them with a ballistic advantage 20 inch bull barrel. I’m thinking the lack of any wiggle room between the receivers might help with accuracy. ??? Idk. The front takedown pin can’t be popped out without a punch but I’m not complaining. I was scared it wouldn’t work at all. This is my first build of any kind.
thanks for the dpms demo. I was looking at dpms for my first slick side ar-15 upper to start my first ar15 build, and hopefully an ar10 after that
I have a gen 1 that has that real tall receiver I put a Magpul stock on it to help compensate for that high rail and a Geisselle trigger SSA Group size for M80 ball is very close to your results but mine absolutely loves 168 grain Federal Sierra Match King Unfortunately cans are not allowed in my state
Test out the Windham Weaponry SRC 308 SS15 at long range.
I bought a master of arms titanium adjustable gas block for my colt M4, it actually reduced felt recoil and speed up my shot times.
This is what my senator sent back after letting him know my stance on 2A. Thank you for contacting me regarding the recent tragedies in Dayton, Ohio and El Paso, Texas. I appreciate the opportunity to respond. Tragedies like these are devastating, not only to the communities and loved ones impacted, but also to families across the nation as we grieve with them and keep them in our prayers.
The safety of our families is always my top priority, and I am a proud supporter of the Constitution, the Second Amendment and the rights of law-abiding citizens. As we work to move forward, I am committed to reviewing proposals that work to keep Americans safe. As Governor of Florida, I worked to increase safety measures in Florida’s schools through the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act. We also passed a “red flag” law in the state of Florida, commonly referred to as an Emergency Risk Protection Order (ERPO). When properly constructed, red flag laws are a common sense measure to keep weapons out of the hands of any person who threatens to harm themselves or others, or who is mentally unstable.
As United States Senator, I remain focused on making sure that our schools and communities are safe, and that those struggling with mental health issues or threatening harm to themselves or others cannot use a weapon. I am currently working with my colleagues to pass the EAGLES Act (S. 495), which provides law enforcement more resources to prevent tragedies and improves school safety for students and teachers. I am also a cosponsor of the Threat Assessment, Prevention, and Safety (TAPS) Act (S. 265), which will create a task force of experts to provide recommendations for a national strategy to keep communities safe from targeted violence.
Again, thank you for your correspondence. I am proud to represent every citizen in Florida and I appreciate the time you took to provide your position on this matter. Should you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Rick Scott
United States Senator/ lost cause in Florida 👎
Mine LOVES 155 grain HPBTs, and they're good out to at least 800. The 155 grainers hold half inch or tighter groups at 100. 175 gr HPBTs hold at least MOA through it, and they'll definitely touch 1k, but not much past that.
I was using the PA 4-14x44 with DMR HUD reticle, but have since moved on to a USO TS-25X with JVCR reticle. I also opted for a tube mounted red dot sitting at 12 o'clock for close work, and keep the scope somewhere between 7x and 10x unless I'm ranging targets or spotting.
Oh lowrdy, Chad . That hair is working . Soon you will have to do pantene slowmo clips like dangerous bob.
Love that build . Very cool
We didn't put that much into it really. Then he says Geissele trigger and mount. Sharps rifle BCG. The scope is a given however . I have a Docter target scope which is way more than a PA scope.
The absolute truth is the DPMS LR308 1st gen is a super rifle and even though the gen 2 is nice weight wise and in looks and size , the 1st gen outperforms it. The LR308 I would hate to have to pack it around. Seriously heavy soaked out.
I have a Troy forend and do have a geissele trigger a Leupold mount , magpul bipod , pistol grip and PRS stock.
Weight was not a concern as I built it to be used in a stationary situation.
I have other AR platforms for on the move.
I love the 7.62X51 cal. I also am somewhat impressed with the 6.5 Creedmoor.
I have one of these with a 16" non-free float barrel. It will shoot MOA with good ammo when I'm doing my part.
That suppressor is workin' overtime. Really nice build!
Nice vid. More 308 vids would be nice. It would also be nice if you could show us what the scope looks like at 100 yards. 👍
Chad is proving something I had only myself to test on - the longer my hair gets, the better I can see the greys...
You must really hate that coyote, Chad. You hit it in the ass multiple times!
DPMS ahhh....rings right to my heart...I used to live by there factory before they moved.
My DPMS gen 2 shoots really good, it is just hard to shoot accurately because of its light weight. Great practice gun.
Liked video automatically when he said got some 30hate
SAME
Great video. I absolutely love my LR 308. It is sure a shooter with the right ammo.
Other than upgrades that cost as much as the original price of the gun it's bare bones guys 🤣☠🤣☠🤣
I have got to get me a 308 rifle one of these days!
Savage sells some very affordable bolt actions with good features.
I have an LR308 in 308 Win with an 18 inch BHW barrel, mid gas, RR varmint trigger, and I run an AAC SD can. Factory Hornady 178 runs about 3/4 at 100. Handloaded 168 AMaxs and get around 1/2 inch of I do my part.
Amazed that bipod stays on with it sticking off the back of the mount like that. Good shooting and video though.
Sweet rig man makes me glad I pick up one at the gun range slick side with the bull barrel 24” first time out shooting clays at 210yrds every time very fun
Man when putting these together there is a lot of confusion with company's referring to parts for this platform as a AR10 which it is not a AR10 . Nice build ,gr8 shooting Sir!
The most accurate rig I ever seen in this Iraqveteren8888 channel.
Very impressive shooting, Chad!
I think it's time to start a GoFundMe page for Chad's barber. Lol
Are you saying he's too poor to afford a haircut? Get over it, man.
Chad - never cut it! Let it get _long!_
Please do a review of the POF Revolution.....and get a haircut....hippie
Alabama arsenal does a good review of the pof... i have one as well been using it for hog hunting thr last few months over 100 hogs down with it so far. @urbanmarksmen_captain on IG
ned and jimbo off south park and they literally almost fit the characters hahaha its why I keep coming back :D hahaha
My first and only (2) AR15's are DPMS and I don't feel the urge to upgrade. Looking for my first AR10, and the LR-308 will probably be the one.
Outstanding rifle!
That range is awesome 👍
“Budget build” lol new gas block new trigger new bcg you replaced almost all the major components. Keep it up love the videos
I got mine 5 years ago. Is My#1 hunting rifle with DOIN works hand gard, gas block, trigger, muzzle brake 7 for only $400, and $750for the rifle. My Nex thing 243win barrel or full top.
I love ar 10s but i would definitely say the aero precision m5e1 is way higher quality and way cheaper. Also 308 MELTDOWN !!!!!!
I have an Aero precision ar 10 with strike eagle 1-6
Man that is a sweet rig there Chad, you make it look easy....nothing like a dialed in .308...KEEP ON ROCKIN IT!.......Iraqveteran8888..............
Aero precision ar 10 with a Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6 here
I love my DPMS SASS and R.E.P.R.. They are both great out to 1000 with 168gr SMK with 18" and 20" 1/10's respectively.
I have a Gen 1 LR-308 and can confirm it's an awesome gun!
Dat laugh at 0:23 an the I love it an can't get enough of the shootin Chad does an he's a good guy an he's a bad man when it comes to custom 7.62 caliber rifles bar none
the one thing you didnt do was run 7.62 outta it ! but i own dpms and love every inch of it
That is a awesome AR-10 Chad !!!!!!!!!!
Let's do a couple more vids on some .308 AR10s
That DPS 308 is really a good shooter I wouldn't mind adding one of those to my gun safe. All I need to do is convince the little wifey that I really need one.
Chad I wanna see a full review on your marlin 45-70!
I have been wanting one of these. Then I heard about the CZ Bren BR. I am torn haha. I hope CZ can bring them here soon. There's also the Saint Victor I am interested in. I am a .308 guy too. Miss my M1A.
Lmao, A DPMS and a CZ Bren are on opposite ends of the price spectrum.
@@TheAsheybabe89 Indeed, but still like it.
Thanks for sharing, Chad! This is awesome!
That's some good shooting brother! 300yds with the suppressor too... first time seeing your videos, definitely watch more. Keep up the good work man!
Ok will start by saying I have recently slimed down my collection to stuff I shoot and want to shoot on the regular, I found myself not shooting a lot in a year period, when I started collecting I said to self if I don't shoot it or desire to shoot it in a year its gone. My point being I have a lot in 308 that I kept because every range session I grab one of the various guns I have in 308, some of that I am sure is viability of 308, but it is usually pleasant to shoot and can be very accurate. Being in the Military and knowing the ballistic chart by heart for 308 helps a tone as well.
Nice build. Can you try out a review on the POF-USA Revolution DI?
They probably will make you a video for 4grand
. and you send them the rifle. Can't blame a man for makimg a living. But they shouldnt be allowed in shot show with a press pass.
Boy do I wanna see that review. Anything POF is typically very nice
Love 308 it will always be the go to round
DPMS AR-10 is no joke. With handloads I am getting .7 inch groups at 100 yards
I'd like to see what the PSA AR-10 and the the Diamondback DB-10 can do compared to it since they're all at a similar price point.
I have an aero precision upper in 6.5 Creedmore it runs amazingly, you might find that lr 308 has better aftermarket that often is cheaper than scar.
