Did you buy the receiver separately? I am looking at building a new .308 as well. Would love some more info on the upper and lower.

Yes I bought everything separately. The upper and lower are matched from Matrix. Home - Matrix Aerospace. Call them and t/t Courtney. MatrixAero is the contractor that make all of the Ruger upper and lowers. It's based on the Armalite platform but DPMS MAGS and Pmags gen 1-3 will work. Be careful of buying off gunbroker as some of the ones being sold on that site will only take the DPMS and gen1 or 2 pmags which are not made any longer. MAGPUL now only makes the gen 3. The set will cost you about 400 last time I checked but don't quote me on that, I bought mine about 4 months ago. There are some dealers carrying these. The quality is awesome. So far I like mine, still working on some minor issues with ammo and feeding but nothing I am really concerned about. Just looking for the best recipe to feed the hungry beast.
