I have been shooting a DPMS GII Lite Hunter in .308 (actually 7.62 NATO) for nearly a year and like it a lot. Using it every week on goat pig & deer. Much lighter and more compact than other AR .308's I looked at, and as you say some parts are AR15 compatible. As a hunting/pest control rifle it ticks all the boxes for me and runs reliably. If you start swapping out barrels and gas blocks then you're on your own!
I find the .308 ideal but the catalogue says it's also available in .243 Win .260 Rem and .338 Fed.
