Remington R15
 
Has any one used this rifle? What are your gripes and complaints about it? I used the search to look for past post. But nothing came up. I've been looking hard at an AR platform for South Georgia Coyotes. I need a fast rate of fire so i can get'em all. My bolt gun just aint cutting it any more.

Pretty much a re-badged Bushmaster, so it should be a pretty good shooter.;)

Ditto, it's a Bushmaster with Remingtons name on it.

I thoughtthey ressembled a bushmaster, they cost about the same to. I recently purchased a bushmaster varminter special with a stainless 24" barrel and I freakin love it

I picked 1 up about a month ago, shoots great. I also have a Bushmaster m4gery the R15 shoots much better. The R15 does not have a chrome limed bore, it also has a target crown on the barrel, fluted barrel for lighter weight and a much better trigger all though single stage. I got the carbine 18" barrel and have a 1.5-4.5x38 on top of it just for yotes. The worst thing is season does not come in until Oct15.


This is at 45 yards shooting prone unsupported just like I hunt. That is as long a shot as I can get right now with the way we have the livestock pastured. Yeah I know 1 flier it was me too.

I have not owned the Remington yet. And I have not seen the price. I have owned, DPMS, BushMaster, Rock River, and shot the S&W. Our experience is that the Rock River's are the most accurate of the bunch. To me accuracy is key in these rifles.

The Rock River shot the best group. The only one I was disappointed in was the BushMaster. We had two of them that I would not take a 300 yard shot with. Accuracy was poor. However these were not the Varmint HB models(to be fair).

Below is a picture of a 300 yard group off the bench with Black Hills factory ammo. I shot this with the Leupold VH reticle, and a slight left to right wind. This is the best group I have shot. But all the groups are pretty close to this one. Tom.

That is impressive Head. I just got a B'master M4 config. I was a bit skeptical of the accuracy claims but not now. I just can't wait until my SB die comes in so I can run some handload through it.
