I am looking to buy an all around .308 for shooting at the range, hunting, ...etc.

Narrowed it down to LTR and the 5R by Remington, like them both, one has 20" bbl and tactical (black) stock (LTR) - and the other has the famous 5R stainless barrel. price is within $100 of each so not that much different. Both have rav reviews and can shoot 1/2 MOA if the ammo is right and the shooter does his part.

Which one would you buy? and why?

thanks for helping with a very difficult choice.
