About This Firearm

The Smith & Wesson M&P 10 Sport Optics Ready is a semi-automatic .308 Winchester built for range shooting and deer hunting. It has an MSRP of $1,259. Its safety selector, magazine release and bolt release are all ambidextrous, so a left-handed shooter runs the rifle without reaching across the receiver.

One 20-round PMAG comes with it. The receiver carries a Picatinny rail and the gas block carries a short one of its own, with a sling swivel fitted and a mid-length handguard over the barrel. The stock has six positions and reaches 14.25 inches of pull at its longest. No sights are fitted. The muzzle is threaded under the A2 flash suppressor, so measure the thread before buying a brake or a suppressor mount.

If you’re cross-shopping, the Ruger SFAR is a used buy at 6.80 lbs, 1.2 lbs lighter, with an adjustable gas block and a 5/8-24 thread Ruger states outright. The Sig Sauer 716i Tread has an MSRP of $1,519.99 and weighs 8.50 lbs, with an M-LOK fore-end and a free-floating barrel. The Smith & Wesson sits between the two on price, with ambidextrous controls as standard.

Best For

GOOD
Range/Target
5R rifling and a 1:10 twist take bulk practice ammunition and heavy match bullets alike, and the Armornite treatment runs through the bore as well as over the outside.
GOOD
Hunting (Deer/Elk)
At 8.00 lbs and 37.5 inches extended it is heavy for a long walk but steady from a stand, and the gas system is mid-length.
FAIR
Home Defense
The ambidextrous bolt release and magazine release let the rifle be reloaded with either hand, though a .308 indoors is a lot of blast and there are no sights to fall back on.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths
  • The firing pin is chromed, and both receivers are 7075 aluminum.
  • Smith & Wesson credits Armornite with corrosion and wear resistance, less surface roughness, lower light reflection and more surface lubricity.
  • A sling swivel is already fitted, so a two-point sling goes on without buying hardware.
Limitations
  • Nothing is fitted to aim with, so an optic has to be bought before the rifle can be used.
  • One magazine comes with it, so a range session planned around more than 20 rounds at a time needs spares.
