non bull-pup semi 308 options?

[.22LRGUY]

Hey guys-I'm not quite "fudd" aged but my preference is for bolt guns anyway. I had this question asked on the weekend and I could answer what (most of) the .223 semi options were, 308 is a blind spot. What 308 (non bull-pup) options are out there? Sock boy and Fred Flinstone haven't put them all on their no-no list yet have they?

B&T apc 308 is about your only option

Browning BARs?

Keltec RFB is bullpup 308. They can be found on EE or #######.

If you're hunting, browning BAR.

I asked the same question last week (sans non-Bullpup criteria):

Hope the answers there are helpful.

i was anti-bullpup and then had the chance to shoot a friends x95 on the weekend which changed my mind.

The problem is finding a quality rifle at a reasonable price, that is not restricted. The X95 may be at the peak of those requirements. Personally I'd prefer to keep my AR15's but our ####ty govt seems determined to make that impossible.

There are a couple of nice, conventional rifles available but the prices are way higher. Then there are the various AR180 clones, which are OK, but are mostly more budget rifles. Nothing against them, we have a WK180 and I like it.

And Benelli R1, Winchester 100 and Remington 740/742/7400/750.

I am waiting to hear more feedback from the Crusader Crux the 308 big brother of the Templar 223, Seems like a solid choice but they have not really hit the market yet and so not much for feedback but its my next purchase if it has good reviews but for the price I am going to wait to see first

I had a 308 FNAR Semi. It took any ammo and it never jammed.

Italian M1 Garands, semi with 8 round capacity of .308

Famae 542 is another one

I really liked my 542 - ergonomics and reliability were decent, but that being said, it wasn't particularly accurate. The real downside was the price of the magazines, though - well over a hundred bucks each, on rare occasions when you could find them.
