![James Reeves](https://cdn-fastly.thefirearmblog.com/media/profile/2024/05/07/46_1.jpg?size=91x91)
It's time for a $5,000 Springfield M1A Tanker vs. a $2,000 Aero AR-10 DMR Showdown! Today, we're diving into the world of Designated Marksman Rifles (DMRs) with a head-to-head challenge between a high-end M1A Tanker with Leupold optic and a budget-friendly Aero M5 AR10 using a Burris scope.
Learn about the unique role of DMRs, bridging the gap between standard carbines and long-range sniper rifles. We'll explore the features that make them special, from semi-automatic capabilities to magnified optics. @JamesReeves will showcase a premium M1A Tanker setup, featuring top-notch components like the Leupold Mark 5HD scope, composite stock, and a slew of upgrades. Despite its high price tag, this build aims to deliver unparalleled performance. @Hoplopfheil presents his more budget-conscious Aero M5 AR10, equipped with solid yet affordable components like a Burris optic. We'll see how this cost-effective build stacks up against its luxurious counterpart.

Why not use a LaRue OBR/predatOBR?
or is this just about generic DMRs?
James you should have just bought an M1A from Bula Defense or Fulton Armory, its just better quality. https://buladefense.com/product/22-m21dmr/
