Alaskapopo Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I am thinking about spending possible tax return money on a Larue Predator in .308. Anyone here have one and what kind of accuracy are you getting? I thought it might make a good heavy metal rifle. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop N Fresh Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 don't own one, saving for an obr right now Shot the predator's at Mark's bbq/range day this year from 50 to 500yds with various optics and they were fantastic. LaRue rifles and accuracy seem to be fairly synonymous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STInky Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Larue is building some great rifles. My department has even testing two OBRs as sniper rifles, and just ordered 5 more. Mine should be here in about two weeks !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sc0 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I think Larue might introduce some more toys at SHOT... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskapopo Posted January 15, 2012 Author Share Posted January 15, 2012 its a good rifle, but i like my LRP07 better. trapr Why? Accuracy, weight, Balance, reliablity? Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMAC Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I have a 16" PredatAR, 16" OBR and 18" LRP-07. I like them all and they all have different advantages. The light weight of the PredatAR does not help with 3 Gun (even with a good muzzle break). I haven't shot the OBR much, but it also has more recoil impulse for relatively the same weight as the JP. Although I have not timed myself over a course of various rifle scenarios, I am without a doubt, faster with the LRP-07. If you are planning to shoot the Blue Ridge 3 Gun, or AR15/RockCastle 3 Gun Match, I am happy to bring them all with me and let shoot them to see which may suit you better.

RangerTrace Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Here is a crappy phone pic of the one's we're being issued. I haven't got mine yet, but I'll let you know how it shoots when I do. Edited January 16, 2012 by SV-COP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
