POF makes a piston AR.308 with a billet receiver but they are not cheap... https://pof-usa.com/16.5-p308-black.html

Yeah, that’s well over 2X budget.

Also have read a few posts of POF accuracy problems, so $$$ does not buy everything. Of course the POF fan boyz with their $3500 scopes go ballistic at the hint of heresy....

A Larue, Baer, or GAP-10 would be my preference if I were to spend that much.
