The Lite Hunter offer similar sustained accuracy as some of the heavier DPMS bull barrels without the extra weight, in calibers well suited to medium game like Antelope for longer shots.

I will be Field Testing the rifle this spring and summer. It was just delivered to my dealer and I will be picking it up this week.

The recoil on the 308 platform is less then a 12 gauge shot gun shooting a 2 3/4" 5 shot. the weight of the rifle and the buffer and buffer spring take up 70% of the recoil.
