Just looking into this model also..

There are 2 reviews online about it and 8 or so posts on various boards on the 308 model.

BM says its MID-LENGTH and says it will take mid-length HG's..

A guy on the TX forums managed to get a Troy Ind. MRF rail on his.. waiting to hear EXACTLY which one..

This uses DPMS, SR25 mags.. and it appears to be a HEAVY 16" 308 DPMS type rifle.. (seeing they are making more DPMS accessories)

I would say run Pmags or FACTORY Bushmaster mags and you should be GTG.

Some folks are saying sub-1 to 1.7 groups.. one person said 800 yard shots into 8x11 paper with optics..

Keep you apprised if I get one..

Did you get one?? if so any insight or parts used...

This rifle is a DPMS with Bushmaster's name on it. You'll see a lot of this "sharing" between Bushmaster, DPMS, Remington and others, because they are all owned by Cerebus now.

For example the Remington "AR's" are made by DPMS in their .308 line and Bushmaster for their .223 line of rifles.

Yes, it would seem that this new conglomorate is just pushing out repackaged product. However, I have seen some change and possibly some new ways of thinking from other products that have been coming out. There are subtle hints that we may yet see some inovative and more robust products coming out soon. That is if all these companies can learn to work together, instead of against each other.

Only time will tell.....

Either way, even the mighty lion will get better because of this.....
I'm still interested in hearing reports on the new .260.....

Well, since I last posted I did an upgrade on the rifle.
New additions: Millet 4x16x50 Green Mildot scope. Awesome.
UTG pro 8.7" mid-length hand rail 60.00
Milled down 1/8"on the inside to fit the bigger barrel nut.
Hogue grip with battery storage 4 2032 batteries.
Detachable bi-pod fore grip. My Bushy AR-15 is behind it.
