There are differences..... For one thing, the AR15 is a standardized platform, and the AR10 is not. For instance a Rock River Arms AR10 will not accept the standard "SR15" magazines that most other AR10s will accept, and vice-versa. Not all bolt carrier groups are alike. Not all recoil buffer systems are alike. But I think the biggest problem is magazine compatibility.
Sorry....I didn't mean to sidetrack your thread.. I know you didn't want an AR15 in one of the calibers you mentioned. The AR10 platform is not the same thing.........as well as listing a bunch of other calibers that you didn't specifically exclude, so I thought that it was within the rules. Hope you find what you are looking for.

That leaves:
  • .300 Win Mag
  • .308/7.62 NATO
  • 7.62x39
  • 6.5×39mm Grendel
  • .450 SOCOM
  • .50 Beowulf
  • .460 Ruger
  • 5.68 TLR
There are probably others, but on some of those, your ammunition needs will "reduce" you to handloading for it.
