So, I've been thinking of saving up my pennies for a little while in order to get a new MBR. After doing some research for a little while, my top 2 rifles are the FN Scar 17s and the LMT MWS. I really dig the scar platform because of the weight being only 8 lbs unloaded which is very good for a gas .308 platform in my opinion. However, I could not help but notice that the proprietary mag that the Scar uses is just about impossible to find and they are quite expensive! Not to mention the lack of other spare parts for the scar platform. The LMT on the other hand, is quite a heavy beast, but it has relatively cheap mags available, spare barrels, as well as other spare parts. Another big thing I'm considering for an MBR is accuracy. If anyone is running any of these 2 platforms, can you give an accuracy report? I've heard the LMT's tend to be more accurate but by how much? Reliability is a big factor as well and I've heard both are very reliable platforms and I don't think one has a distinct advantage over the other. IN YOUR OPINIONS, which would you choose to fill a DMR/MBR purpose?
