Does anyone have one? How do you like it and how does it shoot? My dealer is trying to talk me into one over the AR50. I want other opinions too. Thanks.

Well my AR50 will hold just under .7 moa all day long with the 750A-MAX. Hard to beat for the price and light recoil. Just make sure you have good ear protection.

Re: Steyr 50
With all due respect to your local dealer...I am sure he wants you to buy the Steyr because he'll likely make a fair bit MORE money on selling you one versus the Armalite!!!
I would absolutely, without a doubt buy the Armalite AR-50!! They are excellent rifles for a fraction of the price of the Steyr and the Steyr offers NOTHING more than the Armalite. Additionally, with the Armalite, you get a US made rifle with a company standing behind it that offers excellent support/service if you would happen to have any problems/concerns, with a lifetime warranty to boot! Also, there is plenty of accessory/part support for the AR-50 if you want a different scope base (up to 50MOA cant bases), etc. which is something lacking altogether with the Steyr unless you go the custom mfg'd route which gets expensive fast.

Thanks guys. My dealer makes the same percent on me no matter what I buy. One of the perks of knowing the owner
This is exactly why I was asking on here, cause guys have some knowledge about this stuff and this will be my first 50. If I find that I really like shooting it that much, I might build one on a mac action just the way I want it.
