Anybody have one ? .Im thinking about picking one up with my tax refund Very Happy

. Get it with the 20" barrel and either the operater stock or the magpul PRS the PRS stock is sweet but a little pricy. If I get it I will un scope the Colt Tactical Carbine and put the carry handle back on or put another rear sight on and set the RRA up with the scope for longer range shootin Very Happy

The 20" barrelled version weights 9.2 pounds. Why not consider getting one with a good fluted barrel from www.dtechsuperstore.com? It will weigth about a pound and a half less and be as accurate or better.

Im not real concerned about the weight. RRA claims 3/4" groups at 100yds and that should be better with hand loads Very Happy

thats good enough for me.

I thought I saw some Rock River and DPMS uppers with the bull barrels at the last gunshow for just over 5 bills.

I think you will be pleased with the RRA but I will say +1 for D-tech quality and accuracy. I am considering an AR-15 upper from him in .243 WSSM.

My current .223 20" Varmint flat top is made by White Oak Armament. Tack Driver!

I need to compare the ballistic performance of the 6mm Turbo 40 and the .243 WSSM.

Went up to the Gun Shop today they talked me into the Predator Pursuit RRA pretty much the same thing as the A4 but a little lighter

So as soon as my refund gets here I'm gonna order it Very Happy

I like it! I will need to start looking for an upper like this.

I ended up ordering a complete upper the RRA 20 Inch Predator Pursuit Upper Half Very Happy

. I had to get a new generator Sad

so I couldn't afford to get the complete rifle. But I did the paper work on a DPMS stripped lower Very Happy

so I will build the lower for it when I get the money Very Happy
