Several companies make 7.62x39 uppers makes are an issue, you can do a search for AR47 to see yet another interesting option. in 308 DPMS, and Armalite make a version of the AR in 7.62 x 51
I mentioned it ealier in this thread but you might check Alexander Arms 50 Beowulf it throws a 334 grain round ou the end of e 16 inch barrel at 1900 fps ( gives you about the same ballisting as a 45/70) all on a standard AR lower
