If you're in a hurry just buy the Bushmaster. It's the same gun without the camo job.

they actually have the bushmaster in a camo model too. But i saw them priced at around 1455 for the camo model... the remington model was msrp @ 999

I handled Byron South's R -15 rifle last weekend, a bunch of us got together in Oklahoma for a predator hunt.Byron said he had a hand in designing it. His had a 18 in. barrel [.680 dia.]it handled like a dream .Byron was a guest speaker if you ever get the chance to see him he puts on a good show and is a really nice guy.

I was at Gander Mountain in Mooresville, NC last night and they had the R-15 in .223 for sale. Price was right at $1000. The rifle had a really nice feel to it; it seemed to weigh a little less than my Bushmaster XM-15 E2S .223.

I'm going to buy the .204 with a collapsible stock, and the only one Gander Mtn had was in .223 with fixed stock... but a nice rifle nonetheless.
