I've owned a PTR 91, CMP Garand, and an AR10. Still have the Garand and the AR10. Did not like the recoil or ergonomics of the PTR91, although it did run like a champ.

However, I kind of agree with Ocharry - just get an AR10. It will be shorter and more maneuverable, ergonomics are great, lots of aftermarket parts so you can upgrade trigger, etc. They generally have excellent accuracy. You don't have to mess with a fixed magazine. And you can toss a wide variety of scopes onto one - anything from a red dot to a high power variable scope.
