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.

I agree. I have an RRA ATH, which has a heavy 18" .223 Wylde 1:8" barrel on it. It's a great rig for prairie-dog town.

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.
