I don't have an RAR.
If someone needs a low cost, high quality rifle, the RAR is a great choice.
I think Ruger knocked this one out of the park.

like the Marlin X guns better than the RARs, but they are no longer in production and that has left a weak market niche for the RARs to exploit. The RAR-Predators that I have shot are all accurate, but I can see them becoming money pits if you swap the trigger to a Timney and the stock to a Boyds. I put Boyds Heritage laminated stocks on RAR-Ps in 223, 243, and 6.5 Creed, but the price for a stiffer stock was an added pound of weight, from 8lbs. to 9lbs. out the door.
