I am looking into getting an AR however wondering if they make a conversion kit to shoot a 22LR or something cheap for the AR-10 model. I am wanting something that has more power than a 5.56. I mean basically its just a 22magnum but a little extra on it. I would rather shoot a 308 if needed.

Also do you have to get the conversion kit brand that makes the gun brand you have. Say you have a colt or bushmaster AR do you have to get that same brand conversion kit or what??

Also anyone got specs on how the 223 round performs compared to the 308. The price of 308 ammo is crazy so not sure if I want to go that route. Do they make a AR that shoots a 7.6?
