Reviews abound, what do you want to know.
I would think google could keep you busy for hours.

All your posts are pretty vague trolls. I'd quess your age at 14-16. Not a problem but you will do better with specific questions

Like KewlDeals said, 'good enough for military and swat'... But a terrible idea for doves and bunny rabbits. Always ask yourself, what do I want the gun to do? Home defense,? great then you can accidently shoot your family in the next room or neighbors across the street. Holding off a horde of screaming meanies at several hundred yards is a great application. First decide what you want to achieve.

It makes an excellent around for semi-auto hunting rifle. At the right range, I would take on most any game but maybe the big bears. I have two 308, 700 Remington heavy barrel and a FNAR Match. The FNAR is new to me. Zeroed it in and took it on a doe hunt last weekend. I hunt a friends place ever year on a hunt to thin the does out. FNAR worked flawlessly and the 308 with 150 gr Hornady had both deer down within sight.
308 works great in a bolt action but was design oringally for an automatic rifle. I like it

Texas, I luv u
PS I shot the FNAR four position at 300 yds at the ranch. very accurate rifle

Very good short action hunting/target/tatical round, available in SemiAutos, Bolt Action, Single Shots, Lever Actions and Pumps. The case has a host of rounds based from it, 243, 260, 7mm-08, 338 Federal, 358 Winchester, plus several that are still wildcats 22-243, 25 Souper, 270-08 to name a few.
Like other US military rounds it is very popular with the Civilian market.
Only the Big Bears would I feel under gunned when hunting North Anerican big game.

Mainstream news might be fun to watch
