Familiar handling, unfamiliar power, SIG SAUER has taken the proven features of the SIG516 and applied them into a potent AR-based rifle chambered in 7.62 NATO. Utilizing the tried and true Direct Impingement System, an M1913 Mil-Std rail, free-floating barrel, aluminum forend, and telescoping stock, the SIG716 is the rifle of choice when you require the power of a larger caliber carbine.

Have used several ar style rifles and this one is built better than most. 2-3 inch groups with military 7.62x51, 1 inch groups with sierra matchings. Good value for a 308 ar. Can't see how a piston rifle would be much better.

The buying experience was great easy and no issues. The gun is very light for what it is and seems to be a quality build. I did change out the charging handle and trigger that come with this gun (CH was cheap and trigger was too heavy of a pull). Excited to go do some hog hunting with it.

KYGUNCO: Great responsiveness, fast shipping and very friendly folks on phone support. The Sig has some issues. Expect to change the trigger. It was like pulling a 9# sled through thick gravel between the wall and when it finally breaks. That's no exaggeration. A Geiselle G2S was my fix. Second, Sig has a proprietary charging handle that just doesn't work well once a scope is mounted. Their ambidextrous handle has been on back order for many weeks and is $50.00 which isn't bad. As a problem solver, I ordered a YHM Tactical Charging Handle Latch to allow me to run the rifle better until the ambi handle arrives. Well, guess what? The roll pin is smaller than mil-spec as well. Not willing to drill out the handle. Last option is to order the charging handle for the Sig 716 DMR. They ask $150.00 for it, but will discount it for you. Other than that it's a good rifle that shot 1.5 moa with 147gr ball before the trigger swap. Expecting sub moa with match grade ammo and new trigger.

The 716i is a great rifle. It is accurate and absolutely reliable. Off of a bipod with a 1-4x scope, I shot a sub MOA group with the 175 SMK and I4895. I want to buy another one when they are back in stock. KYGUN company had the best price.
