The Burris scope cost almost as much as the rifle.! However, the optics are excellent, and I have less money in this gun than a light weight Rock River without optics! With my hand loads, my Oracle will shoot 5-shot one inch groups at 100 yards from a bench. A light weight Rock River was a bit pricey, so I purchased a DPMS Panther Oracle for under $600 including a 7% sales tax new at a local gun shop.

which includes the weight of my optics, which is a Burris M TAC 1X4 power scope. I wanted a much lighter AR-15, and purchased another AR-15 that weighs right at 7 lbs. due to the heavy match barrel, and is not good for fast shooting like in 3-gun competition.when moving from target to target, it is hard to stop the gun moving since it is so heavy. With my handloads, the gun will shoot 5 shot 3/4' groups at 100 yards with mixed brass. I installed a good aftermarket adjustable trigger that breaks very clean and crisp around 2.5 lbs. I have a Rock River NM A-2 (without the handguard) AR-15 with a 20' heavy match barrel with Wylde chamber, and use a 3 X 9 power Redfield wide view scope.

AR-15's and free floating handguards.įree floating handguards are supposed to be more accurate.the question is, how much more accurate.? Yes, they look cool.!
