hunting 308 ar platform

Without knowing any particular required specs, its hard to just toss out names. Everyone you mentioned can build a wonderful (and accurate) rifle. There is one that you "didn't" mention so I will bring it up.
If you are not stuck on the AR-10 platform, G.A. Precision builds the GAP-10. They use POF upper/lower receiver and can use a barrel length of 16.5 to 22".
I don't have any personal experience G.A. Precision, but during my 25 days of research and forum crawling, his company came up ALOT.
Their base price starts at $2,600 but will change based on options.

After my research, I decided to just buy an Armalite SuperSASS. It saved me the time and hassle of building one, and I can always "add" to it as I see fit. I'm probably not going to hunt with it. It's more for 700 yard shots at 10" metal plates.
Depending on my hunt, though I may bring it out and see what it can do to a coyote or javalina.

Just curious, is the MI railed hand guard a Gen 2 or 1..
As for the choice of red dot or scope...I would have to say a Scope in a QD mount such as a ADM Recon...they have two trow levers over the Scout model which has one in the center of the mount..better suited for a AR-10...as for the scope...that is up to you and your wallet...I would say at least 3x9 if not 4x16....or at least a Acog type or fixed power with a Adjustable Objective or Parraplex...
Congrats on the New Toy...

Cool...I also have a Gen 2 on mine...very light...
As for the ADM mounts...I have not had any issues with them returning to Z.
Last year during a shooting match I took off my scope to view the other shooter's targets...everyone around me went nuts..."What are doing"...all I said was No worries...
I did a couple of videos on them and posted it in the Rifle scope Cat...page 2.
Here is the link if you want to check them out....if you have any question..feel free to ask..
