The Ruger AR-556 MPR in .223 Wylde (brand part no. 08548) pairs an 18-inch Proof Research carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel with a rifle-length gas system, giving precision shooters a lighter-weight rifle without sacrificing accuracy. Ruger chambers this rifle in .223 Wylde, a chamber geometry that safely and accurately runs both 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington ammunition, and fits it with a Magpul PRS Lite adjustable stock and a Magpul MOE-K2 grip. The two-stage Ruger Elite 452 AR-Trigger breaks at a smooth 4.5 pounds, and the free-floated M-LOK handguard keeps the barrel accuracy-focused. Among precision carbines in the AR rifles category, the AR-556 MPR favors shooters who want a lightweight, adjustable precision platform.
