After reading all this why not have both in any combination you want. 308 or 6.5 are both accurate and long range rounds
Looks like you've talked your self into it so go for it

Of course, you could get an AR10 with 2 different uppers. Get a long heavier barrel upper in your caliber of choosing for target, and get a short light weight barrel upper for hunting. Win win.

I don't know what kind of hunting you do, but if it involves walking with a climber, plus accesories, plus rifle, you may want to look a . A scout rifle type 308 or 6.5. Sure makes life easier when you don't have to carry those heavy models your mulling over. If you hunt permanent stands over foodplots n feeders, get the ar10 in 308, rebarrell the 700 to 6.5cm. Happy hunting

Almost complete...

I have been slowly ordering parts for my build; got everything but the trigger, bolt carrier group, buffer, buffer spring and muzzle brake. First go around I got an 18inch stainless steel 6.5creedmoor barrel. The 308 barrel I wanted was out of stock and the 6.5 barrel was on sale for $200 with free shipping. I appreciate all the feed back that responded to my budding delima. I like the idea of having multiple upper, but I will also be changing my 700 to a 6.5cm. This being my first build it’s been a lot of fun and makes me appreciate this gun that much more.

I know.....

you want a 6.5 creed....

I got my wants also.

I built my range gun from a 700 rem .243 I already owned put a 6-24x50 tasco varmit and a bipod on her.

Planning to shoot a 100-400 measured sniper team shoot next month with it. 585 yard 12" gong tie-breaker.

should be lots of fun.

I have a Remington 700 ADL .243 that was my very first gun and I cherish it dearly. I also have my Remington 700 BDL .30-06. I like adding different calibers to my arsenal when I can. Here’s my Remington 700 308 and my new AR10 6.5CM.
