I've had mine for a little while with only about a couple hundred rounds through it. But, havent had a single problem, very accurate, and appears very well made. Put a burris 4.5x14 b-plex on it and really enjoy it. Pmags work great in it also and last time i checked 44mag ships them free

Mine has worked flawlessly and is a joy to shoot as well.  I use mine in 3 gun (heavy metal division) and have had no problems.  It's light, handy and plenty accurate.

I modified my ORC a bit... Last photo shows current config.

I'm confused. The pics you guy's posted look like what Bushmaster calls their MOE .308 Mid-Length, not the ORC .308, which doesn't have a front sight.

mine ran great with everything but the 180gr SP Winchester load.

I simply popped my ORC gas block off and replaced it with an Armalite clamp-type FSP. The furniture is just standard AR Magpul stuff.

I just slapped on the magpul stuff too.  I put on a conventional front sight block with pins. I would've bought the moe setup instead of the orc if it was
available when I bought mine.

Got it. Thanks for clearing that up guy's.

If I can find one, a MOE will be my next firearm purchase.

Anyone shoot an ORC or MOE for accuracy?  This looks like the most interesting factory model I've seen for the KAC/DPMS pattern, if you don't have the cash for an LMT or Larue...

Sorry OP ... not trying to derail your thread.

Have you checked out the DPMS LTR-SASS? It retails for approx $1700 or so depending on who has it, transfer fees, etc...

There is also the Pantherâ„¢ 7.62 NATO Mark 12 which should sell for at least a couple hundred bucks less (no PRS stock).

Mine just came today.  I'll have some pics and a range report soon.  Anybody get a nylon sling from Bushmaster with their ORC?

Here's a quick cell phone pic.  I sighted the t-dot and only had time for 40 rounds with 3 FTE using AE150gr.  Not sure my the cheap shell catcher/net got in the way.  Accuracy is great and pmag wasn't a problem.  I noticed every single case was dinged when it caught the corner of the brass deflector.  I'm not sure if this is a problem but it was noticable.

these rifles are known to have to light of a buffer/spring combo. many highly reccomend a heavier buffer and flat spring. (I need to get them for my rifle) these two mods will slow down the bolt speed which will help with follow up shots, felt recoil, and overall help the gun from beating it's self up.

I put another 60 rounds through tonight with no problems.  Sweet rifle.  Just ordered another 500 rounds from PSA.

I have had mine since they came out, great piece, now that I'm getting older and have lost some strength in my arms the
only beef I have and it all falls on me is the charging handle is a monster to pull, especially when the scope covers part of
handle which contributes to pulling the handle.

Mines been great and very accurate! I've shot 168 grain SMKs, 5 shots under an inch. Mine runs great with no problems. I'm planning to load some fmjs for plinking with it.

I also plan to hunt with mine. I have a 3x9x40 Nikon on it and a Vickers padded 2 point sling.

I have a low pro gas block and a handgaurd by Apex machine. I plan to a a top rail.

Here's mine with lightened barrel profile (thanks, Adco) and Troy 13.8 inch TRX Extreme rail. This is the 3rd time this week that I've posted this pic, but I'm super hyped about it!

It's the standard 16 inch that comes with the ORC. Adco reprofiled the entire barrel to a 0.70 diameter.

I'd really like to have a MOE .308. Don't seem to be many out there though.
