About SPR’s:
Special Purpose Rifles are basically accurized AR15 rifles with a sniper style scope mounted on flattop rail systems. The accuracy comes from a 1/7 or 1/8 twist match barrel which is able to properly stabilize the heavier 77 grain ammunition complimented with a match grade trigger.
The Green Berets, SEALs, Rangers and even the Marines now use the accurized rifles since there is such an easy transition from the standard M4 or AR15 style rifle that everyone is so familiar with. This same weapon platform carries many names: Marines call them SAM-Rs, Special Forces and Rangers call them SPRs, Navy SEALs call them Mark-12s or Recon Rifles, and you may know them simply as accurized AR-15s. In order for an accurized AR-15 to be considered an SPR, the rifle needs to have a free-floated barrel with a tight twist (1:7 or 1:8), a tactical long-range scope (2.5-8x or 3-10x) on a flat top receiver, and preferably a match grade trigger. Our students consistently shoot these rifles accurately well past 900 yards. With less recoil students can really focus on marksmanship fundamentals and learn more in a shorter period of time. Then they can easily transition to up-close targets, engaging multiple targets from 5 yards or clearing corners and doorways with the same rifle!
