^ What they said ^

I may have something to contribute if it is an AR-style you are wanting to assemble.

Well your question is about like calling your mechanic and asking: "My car is making a noise, what is it and how much to fix?"

We need better info from you, what type of shooting are you planning on doing, what budget are you working with etc.
There is a slew of very knowledgeable folks here that are more than willing to chip in their .02, but knowing some specifics will put us in a better spot to help you.

Some of the best semi .308 auto's fall flat sometime after 800 yards, You can run .308 longer and hotter in a bolt gun.
