Pretty big difference between the 5.56 and .308. The .308 will require an AR10 lower. The nice thing about the 5.56 lower is that it's less expensive and there are a lot more upper options. YMMV
I liked the 6.8 enough that I sold all of my 5.56 stuff.
With the way prices went last year I wish I would have held onto everything...but the 6.8 is that fun to shoot.
My .308 is fun too!
