JMIS Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 This will be first full year of competition type shooting. I picked up an FN SLP for my shotgun. Now I would like to upgrade my rifle. Last year I used my Stag AR with Burris AR332. I would like to get a better rifle set up. I've been looking at the Noveske 18" Rogue Hunter 5.56mm. I'm thinking of buying just upper and putting it on my Stag lower. Any thoughts on upper versus complete gun, or other option. Also want to add a 1-4 scope rather than red dot.

aheadofthecurve Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 A fellow shooter has the rogue hunter upper and he does fine with it. The accuracy and reliability are there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pro2AInPA Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Jeremy, let's get together some time and you can shoot my JP. You'll buy one after you're done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warpspeed Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 2 thing about the Noveske I would not like - the intermediate gas system and the railed FF tube. At almost a $ 1000 for the Upper, I'd spend the extra and get a JP15 upper instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a 18 inch Rogue hunter upper and it came with a free stripped lower which I assembled. I am very happy with it. I am a huge Noveske fan they make great reliable and accurate rifles.

Comparable to a Vtac rail. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDavis Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Looking to upgrade my 3 gun rifle. The Noveske is about $300 less that the JP15. IS the JP worth the extra $$? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landshark45 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 For competition only I would get the JP. If you need a dual purpose rifle get the noveske. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boulderchild Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I believe my upper started out as a 16" rogue hunter. I put a 15" Jp tube on it and a sjc comp. my only regret with it to this point is not getting the 18". It's a good choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
