I contemplated the same question a while back and ended up buying an AR10. I agree with an earlier poster that mentioned that there is more to master shooting an AR10 than a bolt gun. From a sled the AR10 is dead on and shoots very good groups at 200 yards that are comparable to very good bolt guns. In bench shooting, I can't do nearly as well with the AR10 as I can with a bolt gun. I went with the AR because I thought it would be more fun...and it is.
So in the end, the big question is what are you going to use it for. I'm seriously considering picking up a Savage 10BA Stealth in 308 to compliment the AR10. Honestly, the biggest problem is not the cost of the guns, it's the cost of putting good optics on them!
