30 Remington AR
Found this article about guns that came out of SHOT show on the Outdoor Life website. Sounds pretty interesting:
Tactical rifles have come a long way from their early days in the rice paddies of Southeast Asia. To say that the AR-platform rifle is one of the most popular sellers would be a serious understatement. Given the versatility of the design, AR rifles can be found nearly everywhere, from target ranges to hunting fields to the trunks of many police cruisers, and in a variety of calibers beyond the original .223 Remington. This year, Remington adds yet another variation with the introduction of the R-15 in the new 30 Remington AR—a .30-caliber cartridge of the same overall length as the .223 that will produce 2,800 fps with a 125-grain bullet, making it an excellent choice for deer-sized game.
The R-15 30 Remington AR is built on a standard AR-15 lower unit. The upper features a modified .308 bolt head and barrel extension. The rifle features an A2-style full buttstock with an A4 upper for easy optics mounting. The 22-inch button-rifled barrel has a recessed crown and is fluted forward of the gas block. The trigger is a single-stage hunting design factory set at 4.5 to 5 pounds. A single-stack magazine offers 4+1 capacity, and the entire rifle is finished in Realtree AP HD camo. SRP: $1,199
