A .308 may be just fine. As mentioned earlier, if the .308 round shoots well we can use the same Nosler bullet to reload both. If not, oh well. I was not sure if the CM could be chambered in a 15 or a 10. Jeff says 10 and I believe him. In the original post I did mention .308 (7.62x51).

On a side note, I have a 742 in 30-06 which is semi auto. It is really no different than a pump as it takes time to recover from the recoil. A .223 does give faster follow up shots but that is a Coyote cartridge.

The AR platform is very accurate in general so I see no problems with it. It is no different to me than a 760 Carbine with a factory 10 round mag. Now, if I could only find one in good shape.
