Looking to pick up 500-1k rounds of plinking/emergency backup ammo for my new ar10. I realize my setup deserves match grade stuff but i just want some relatively cheap stuff(by current .308 standards) for now to kinda get a feel for it, and mabey let friends plink with it. Probably going to order from SGA. I'm not too worried if this gun doesnt like it, since i have other .308's in the works, but i really do want it to

It's 20" 1 in 10 twist, i'm new to long range .308 so i'm not sure where i should start.

Rainier says their UM barrels can shoot 7.62x51 175 gr. M118lr

So I bet it will accommodate the shorter 147gr etc. mil-surp junk at half the price.
