Does anyone have any experience with one? I’ve been wanting a .223 for prairie dog style shooting up to 500 yds. I was thinking maybe a CZ 527, Savage 12 VBSS, or Ruger RPR, but if I can get out there reliably with an auto, why not, huh?
Have fun, be safe.

For off the shelf, I think I'd prefer a Rock River or Wilson Combat. Personally I use the RR. Rock River Varmint A4
Silver spurs and gold tequila keep me hanging on. Pretty girls and old cantinas give me shelter from the storm.

On the Savage it’s 1:8 5R with a Wylde chamber. Not sure how the contour compares to an HBAR but it’s supposed to be somewhat beefier than a regular contour.
Have fun, be safe.
