I know I went down much of the same list you did before buying mine- pros and cons, cost, etc., then of course the "do I really NEED one." Here was my biggest reason- I hunt whitetail, in the woods. I have a model 1894 30-30, .444 marlin, and a 300wsm and have taken deer with each. Only two of...

The dimple is not necessary. What you may find however is that the spring is a bit long, and hard to get back without it bending and pinching if there is no dimple to set the spring. I put a Magpul grip on (no dimple) and clipped that spring 1/4 inch shorter before re-inserting it. That also...

I am assuming that the "dl" designator for that handguard refers to "DPMS" and "low." If so, then yes, that is what you are looking for. Our gun uses a DPMS style barrel nut and has a low height receiver.

No, and I think that has more to do with the shorter overall length of the SP rounds. Zero problems with Remington and Federal in different weights.

No problems whatsoever, and have run several hundred rounds both stock and with gas block/APEX handguard upgrade. I have only shot .308 (no 7.62) so cannot speak to issues with that ammo. This gun rocks!

How is the bolt operating without ammo? No hang ups? Something simple like a slightly misaligned front gas block can twist the gas tube and hang up the gas key.

The factory flash hider is very effective for what it is, and especially from prone does not kick up debris. It does nothing to reduce recoil, but that is not its objective. It is large, but with a .308 it has to be to handle the expelled gas as effectively. To change it out with another flash...

Another view of the handguard/gas block. The VLTOR clamp on block has plenty of room for anyone looking to use Apex handguards.

Magpul grip and stock Leupold VX3, 1.5-5 x 20 Burris mount VLTOR low profile clamp on block Apex handguard I did not want a 13" handguard, and the mid length free float guards leave the block exposed. Apex was great, and put the DPMS barrel nut clamp with an AR 15 10.3" sight block handguard...

Leupold VX 3, 1.5-5 x 20. Nice and lightweight, and perfect for a deer rifle!
