My dealer has two of the Remington 7615 pumps in .223. These rifles use the AR 15 magazines and the ones he has are short barreled and synthetic stocked. Should be very handy for varmints. Does anyone have any experience with one of these accuracy wise?

I had a 7615P and I can attest to the outstanding accuracy of these rifles. I feel that the 7615 is the most out of the box accurate sporter weight .223 remington makes. A sporter barreled 700 has NOTHING on the 7615. Expect well under sub MOA performance.

I have one of the 7615 Police versions in 223. It has a black conventional stock and forearm and 16" barrel ,not exactly like the current version. I have had nothing but SMALL groups from it and it definitely is a varmint grade rifle of the utmost utility. With the parkerized finish and plastic stock it is more or less maintenance free and makes, for me, the perfect 'truck gun'. With a 1.5-5 VariX III it will literally drive tacks with whatever I put thru it and reliability is excellant. Now if I could only remember to pump all would be well.

Based on the glowing reports I bought the 7615P with the ghost ring sight. I'm going to get a Picatinny rail from Evolution Gun Works and have some fun. I'm going to put the same Leupold 1.5x5 scope on mine. Thanks for the input guys!

I have the 7615 camohunter. Took a while to settle on a accurate/hunting load. In am getting 5/8" 5 shot groups using W748 and Hornady 55gr SP. Sent out the trigger for a much needed lighter pull. Its my alternative to the AR's I used to shoot.

I just picked up a 7615P for my "holiday" present to myself. I had a Tasco Compact 2x-8x scope laying around that has a rubberized finish, so I mounted it for load testing.
I am going to try some IMR4895 and Benchmark.
Any good loads will help. Mark
