I've settled on the 7.62mm round over the 5.56mm, for more power and punch, otherwise I probably would have already gotten one of the Sig AR-styled rifles. I was looking seriously at the Ruger Mini-30, but the barrel is a bit thin for my liking. May not matter at all. I know the Mini-30's are reliable, although I've never actually fired one.
I just learned yesterday that Sig now has a 7.62mm rifle out, the new "Russian P556R". At roughly $1200, it seems a bit cheap compared to some of the other Sig Rifles. Did Sig skimp on the P556R? What gives? Just wondering if anybody has actually fired the new 7.62mm rifle and any opinions about it.
At more than half the cost, the Mini-30 still looks quite appealing, although it's a different animal altogether I know. Would be interested in hearing about it too if anybody cares to chime in. Thanks for any input.
