I am looking for a .308 semi-auto rifle that is accurate at long range. Does anyone know effective ranges for these rifles? All three boast sub-moa accuracy but the prices vary greatly. What are the differences and for an average shooter, would i need the expensive LWRC? I would like that one but will the accuracy and quality be different from the DPMS rifles. The SASS price is appealing to me. I do know the gas-piston system is a big difference. Like i said, the best long range gun for an average shooter getting into long range. Also, must be able to hold a suppressor well. Thanks for the advice, it always helps.

I have the SASS and I really like it. I've only taken it out to 500 yards and it performed superbly. I'm not silly enough to compare it to a rifle costing $1500+ more though.

Good point, lol. How is the accuracy?

Accuracy is excellent.

I doubt any of the above will come close to the accuracy of a Les Baer AR 308 sniper rifle.

As a related possible topic
Trying to get a really accurate 308 AR rifle that can be considered a carry gun defies reality.
The best 308 carbine, IMO, would be a PWS MK214 or 216 (14.5 or 16" barrel) with it's simple piston it is reliable and small enough for carry

The Knight SR25 or LBC 308 sniper would be the better long range shooter but by the time you put a big optic and Bi-pod it will be 15-18 pounds

The right tool for the right job and in this case trying to combine them borders on pointless

You have a pretty wide price range it seems like. The Larue OBR's are supposed to be exceptionally accurate. They are purpose built for long range accurate shooting. I have an LMT MWS that I am very happy with, I have shot 10rd groups you could almost cover with a quarter, and its a chrome lined 16 barrel. It also features LMT's barrel change feature for diff calibers or barrel lengths. They all use KAC pattern mags and Magpul LR mags so they are gtg. No experience with the DPMS.
