I have a Remington R-25 in 308 and was thinking I would like to have a 243 upper to go with it. Can't seem to find one. I found a 243 barrel but would rather have a compleat upper so I could just switch it out. I don't have the money to spend on one with taxes coming up but would like to get one this spring. DPMS didn't have them who else would have them?
 
I have "heard" that the "black" gun mfgrs all make each one a little different so parts MAY not be interchangeable.

I would keep looking for a R25 243 upper. Or maybe another 308 and get a 243 barrel for it.

I guess I should have mentioned that DPMS builds the R25 parts for Remington, or did.

CHeck out CMMG. They have them or the components to build one.
