The only calibres I know of in the AR10 is .308 and .338 federal,there is no 22 conversion for the AR10,they don;t even make a 22 calibre barrel for it.If you want to shoot 22 out of an AR you will need to get an AR15,then buy a ciener or comparable 22 conversion kit,or a complete dedivated 22 LR upper receiver.Then if you want to shoot 30 calibre you can get an 7.62x39 upper assembly and magazines designed for the 7.62x39 round in an AR15
