CMMG Resolute 308 Review: Long Range AR10 TESTED!

Zero to 500 meters TESTED. Even with cheap ammo, this attractive AR10 carbine can precisely knock down any defensive targets or medium game. Brutal hog hunting rifle? You bet. Deer hunting AR10? Absolutely. Head-turner at the range? Double-check. This a premium 16" carbine straight from the factory, including a supremely effective muzzle brake, ambi controls, and the quick-deploy RipStock.

GOOD REVIEW But I prefer the 20" -24" barrels in the .308 AR-10 the 16" to much velocity is wasted in a fireball outside the muzzle. The AR 10 with 20" -24" barrel is affective at 1000 meters on 36" high 18" wide targets. Zeroed at 200 meters its very affective.

[@SocialRegressive]

As long as you can manage the weight, I 100% agree. The 6.5 Creedmoor Endeavor 24" model I tested a few years ago was capable of insane feats of marksmanship, even hitting the mile mark. What a machine.

[@gronthomson]

Great review, as ALWAYS! Love the color, the rifle, and the company. I see one of these in my very near future!

[@TheLoneRanger745]

Nice looking in Burnt Bronze, I've not seen a bipod over the top like that , looks stable. Great Long range shooting.

[@richardlafleur2511]

I bought mine from ABC Rifle in Las Vegas. I need to get at 400 yrds with it. I got a Monstrum Tactical 3-18x50 ffp. Awesome optics for the price.

[@joquin4618]

I like CMMG just not really liking most of the prices on their products….but I’m a HUGE fan of good running hard hitting 308 semiauto battle rifle 😊😊😊 love it 🥰!

[@jcjustice3786]

Once again another very nice explanation. Which one was more accurate,,, The palmetto gen 3 or this one? I would sincerely appreciate your advise on this.👍👍👍

[@SocialRegressive]

I think the CMMG was a bit more precise, but it was hard to tell. It may depend on the ammo. This CMMG LOVED Deer Season XP. The precision of those hits with the big scope was unexpectedly tight.

[@remr15]

Nice rig, it will serve you well, and well you may wear

[@SocialRegressive]

I'm expecting a lifetime of big adventures with this rig.

[@winnmahuron6314]

I understand the use of something to soften the buttstock but if you are used to any military firearms, they are either steel plate or some hardened polymer. With it being lighter in weight is the recoil still similar to an M14 or M1A. I really liked your review of the PSA Gen3 and it’s adjustable gas block. Thank you also for testing out the iron sights and talking about the adjustments.

[@SocialRegressive]

I want to put Ultradyne sights on all my ARs now; as long as it's not getting dark out, they work like nothing else. Thanks for watching!

[@mossyoak7477]

Bought this same set up, except for the scope. Trying to decide between a Trijicon Credo 1-6 with the BDC for .308, or Primary Arms SLx 1-8 with the ACSS for .308. Any input would be much appreciated. Good to see a fellow Okie, great review!!

[@SocialRegressive]

I don't know how the glass quality compares, but I love the ACSS reticle with its wind dots. It should be plenty capable across all reasonable scenarios.

[@p47rr]

I definitely like the color.

[@SocialRegressive]

Me, too. CMMG's new Cerakote process is MUCH improved over previous years.

[@jjgriffin3275]

do (your) top 5 or 10 AR10's that are on the market, even can go further under 1000 paperbacks then 1500 then 2000 paperbacks

[@jeffgeesaman4386]

Did you shoot it suppressed? If so was it extremely over-gassed? Thanks love the content

[@SocialRegressive]

I haven't tried this one suppressed yet. I just got it set up. I expect it to get a little gassy and dirty, but probably not too bad since it has a rifle-length gas system. My 6.5 Creedmoor model doesn't seem to care what's on the muzzle. It just runs like a clock.

[@leonardvorhis838]

Kyle, What rig, cartridge rifle and scope, would you optimize for the 300 yard 6 egg challenge? L

[@LukeSR-71]

@@SocialRegressiveany updates on the suppressed set up?

[@ronws2007]

Always a succcinct review. Of course, the paper and steel or knock-down targets speak for themselves. It doesn't just look pretty, it works well.

[@SocialRegressive]

That's what it's all about. Good to hear from you!

[@dannynotlihc8570]

Nice bean.

[@Kaltwasser45]

First time seeing this rifle. Any feedback on it suppressed by any chance?

[@SocialRegressive]

Not yet. I'm about to add one of my adaptors for testing.

[@SocialRegressive]

I expect it to work very well.

[@Kaltwasser45]

@@SocialRegressive Looking forward to it.

[@philswann]

@@SocialRegressive When you do mount a suppressor, please cover ease/difficulty of removing the CMMG muzzle brake. I've heard they are a beast to get off, and I need to remove mine soon.

[@SocialRegressive]

Good idea. I'll see how it goes.

[@T29hotrod]

Would you prefer this over the Endeavor

[@SocialRegressive]

It depends on use. I would happily take this into high volume hunting situations. If distances increase, I'll take the 6.5 Creedmoor Endeavor.

[@fredbrackely]

I would perfer a barrel with a 1:9 twist. Why? We'll I owned an old DSA FAL that had a Badger Cryo 1:9 19" fluted barrel which shot 175 match at 1 MOA.

[@SocialRegressive]

I would prefer that, too, with this short barrel. Apparently it's not a problem, though. I've been able to stabilize some big bullets. Maybe it won't handle the 230s.

[@rromano158]

Can the butt stock not be changed?

[@SocialRegressive]

It sure can. If I can't figure out a simple buttpad, I may swap to a PRS or PRS Lite.
