Why .308?

DPMS is a good starter brand, it gives you knowledge needed in order to appreciate higher level brands. You may want a scope or red dot sight that usually aren't included with rifles so figure that into your budget. It's also a good thing you don't want a smaller than 16" barrel because you can't get one without going through a lot of hassle with with the ATF and it would defeat your .308 round.

PS, AR15s are .223 / 5.56. AR10s are .308 / 7.62

I also want to mention, shooting is a parishable skill. If you want it for defense, shoot it a lot.
