Rock River Arms | LAR-15 Predator II | .223 Wylde | 16″

The Rock River Arms LAR-15 Predator II is a modern sporting rifle built around a 16″ fluted stainless barrel and a long free-float Fred Eichler handguard. It is chambered in .223 Wylde to accept .223/.223 Rem and 5.56 NATO ammunition and features a tuned two-stage varmint trigger and RRA Operator CAR adjustable stock. For optics under $1,000 that match the rifle’s intended role, a Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6×24 offers a robust, low-power variable option suitable for close-to-mid range work.
