    I don't but I really like the concept.

    If it was $500ish I'd buy one for an AR15 lower.

        They cost more than an RPR and have slower lock time.
        Not sure what the advantage is.

        If they came up with a striker system in the bolt and a special trigger that actuated it instead of using a slow AR type hammer, then they would have something.

Took it out yesterday and got it out to 560yds and can say I am very happy with it. Being AR based I was thinking it was gonna be really heavy but it’s actually not. I haven’t weighed it yet but after I get the actual scope and stock I want on it I will. I bought the UPR-10 in .308 with the 24” barrel. Does anyone else have one? How do you like it if you do?
          Check the youtube channel West Desert Shooter. He has at least two of them, a 6.5 Creedmoor and a 6 Creedmoor. I think he might also have a .224 Valkyrie on an AR-15 platform.

          The obvious choice of stock is the Magpul PRS, but those are kinda heavy. A lighter one is made by LMT, and it's about the same price, believe it or not.

                Does anyone else have either the 10 or 15?

                  RPR accepts AR-15 handguards, pistol grips, stocks and safety selectors.
                  It also use either AICS mags OR SR-25 (LR308) mags.
                  Not sure what else you wanted to change around.
                  It's as close as you can get to an AR in a real bolt action which means you get a better trigger and faster lock time as well as better primary extraction (easier bolt operation).
                  They run around $1000 for a complete gun with a 20moa scope base already on the receiver.

                    RPR's don't come with hand lapped Shilens though.

                          How is the barrel mounted ?
                          Is mounted like a AR ?
                          Or did they mount it like a bolt action ?
                          Been gone too long. It's been 15 to 20 years since i had to shelf my guns. Those early years sucked.
                          I really miss the good old Pomona Gun Shows.

                              It's an AR barrel as evidenced by the 8 lug bolt which is going to use an AR extension.
                              It won't have good primary extraction like a standard bolt action design with proper cams and clearances.
