The "big brother" to the company's SR-556, Ruger's 7.62/.308 Win. chambered SR-762 has been well-received by the AR industry at large. Ruger released the rifle after customers demanded a .308 equivalent to the SR-556, and has reaped the benefits since. American Rifleman TV took a closer look at the SR-762 in a recent episode.
