You don't need to dump $1000+ into an AR for coyote.
Mossberg MMR = $850
Remington R15 = $1000-1100
Bushmaster Varminter or Predator = $1150
Rock River Predator Pursuit, Coyote rifle/carbine, or Varmint = $1100-1300
The mossy is the only one less than $1000, and it's easy to tell where the corners were cut on the MMR to make up that $150 difference (A2 stock and mil-spec trigger).
Honestly I had really good luck with my DPMS Oracle. I bought it for $650 and replaced the hand guard with a free float tube and it shot amazingly well with the Mil-spec trigger
I actually went to a local shop this evening and looked into a rock river predator pursuit my wife actually said you wont be happy unless its perfect so go for perfection couldn't believe it.......
I have two RRA's. One is a predator pursuit and have used 2 other predator pursuit uppers on other builds. They are all shooters. I also have a r25 and it shoots very well. There are others that make good shooting guns but there are few that offer the what the PP does right from the factory. You can buy a cheaper gun and then change out the stock, trigger, and the hand guard. And when you do that then you are at the price of a PP. But the ar's are the big kid leggo's.
I own 2 Rock rivers (1 Predator Pursuit 20" and 1 CAR 16") and a Remington VTR. Either are good choices. I would save my pennies until you can get your hands on a RRA PP.
Predator Technology Group is turning out great platforms for less than you would think. I have one of their uppers and it stands up against any other upper I own.

Thanks Yoda. We appreciate the feedback. We are trying to spread the AR word, one hunter at a time.
