Why This Version Is Best: Ruger AR556 MPR

Comments

Jarhead5811

I traded a Glock 19 for one of these, about a year ago. Now, out of 7, it’s my favorite AR.

Cali Carrier

Is it just me or is this video blacked out?

Slide75

I am Cornholio. I need TP for my bunghole!

PHILLIP DOUBLE U

This is the rifle I always suggest for someone getting a AR, nice trigger, free float hand guard, and magpul furniture. Just need a decent optic and your pretty much set right out of the box.

Raymond Kuhn

Looks like a decent rifle. I bought a POF Renegade + based partially on your review Nutn and it quickly became my preferred AR in my collection. It is an awesome rifle and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-of-the-line AR15.

SigCrash

Nutn, I'd like to see if you had a different accuracy result with a scope set up that only bridges the receiver and not the rail.

UczenBlood

is that the same kyle rittenhouse?

Roarke O'BRIEN

Great vid thanks for knocking so many out last few days

Slide75

Just you. I watched the entire thing without issues.

Alex B

I picked up an MPR when they first came out, and I'm seeing tighter groups out of mine. I had heard Ruger may have had some QA issues with this rifle, maybe that explains Nutn's 2MOA+ results. Here's some groups I shot at 100 yards with a 1-8x strike eagle (the target on the right was used for initial sight in): https://imgur.com/a/e9vOsom

Drew Headley

I have one of these, similar average results with aguila and Remington 55 grain FMJ. But I have found a hand load that shoots 60 grain Hornady v-max really well usually sub MOA

Jarhead5811

With the steel cased stuff it’s roughly 2.5-3 MOA. With the 64gn Winchester hollow points (marketed as being for hogs don’t recall the name) I keep in it for varmint/defensive duty, it’s around 1.5 MOA. We live on 56 acres in rural south Mississippi but with the rolling ridges and trees I haven’t shot over 110 yards in years. I mostly shoot steel off my back porch and I rarely miss with any of my ARs. But other than sighting a rifle in, if it can hit a six inch steel plate every time at 100 yards, I pay very little attention to group size. My favorite aspect of this one is the trigger. It’s far better than any other AR I have.

Todd Strelka

Yes, I watched the original Ruger AR556 review years ago. I like these black rifle reviews because I compare them to my S&W M&P 15 MOE Magpul rifle. The Beavis & Butthead impression had me cracking up!

Tom Small

Saw that too. Good question. FREE KYLE!!!

Lon N

I wondered the same.

Lon N

+1 observation points. I noticed it too.

Lon N

Awesome treat off the Sunday evening dessert menu. Thanks Nutn. Is that the Fancy family's AR Fudge? Graham cracker/peanut butter.

RowdyRon

Damn, that was an excellent review. Sad note on the accuracy though. You almost had me wanting to get another AR. I have an AR now, however after buying my first AK about eight years ago, the AR hasn't seen the light of day. Thanks Nutn!

Adam Boyd

Beavis and Butthead came out of retirement to make their debut as TNP castmembers in the bunker! Hilarious! Oh...good black rifle content too ;-)

Mike R

I can’t get it to play on my iPhone but I could get it to play on my iPad. Though I could only stream the sound to my tv not the picture.

Aaron Martin

It was totally the FJR 😂🤣

Mike R

I can’t get this to play on the iPhone Patreon app or in safari. There seem to be a jump at the beginning of the video and then it says it’s an error and won’t play. I could get it to play from my iPad app, but I can only steam the sound to my tv not the picture. That was both trying to stream to my Samsung TV and my Apple TV from open YouTube in Safari and as well from the patreon iPad app.

Mobius 1

Wait! That didn't slip by me. Kyle Rittenhouse is a TNP'r? Or did you just slip that in to be silly?

Dione Kollee

Really odd. It wouldn’t allow me to watch. It stated there was an error. After trying a handful of times the video played with audio only. No picture 😔

Josh Payne

Recommended this one a few years ago terming the MPR the perfect Nutnfancy SAPR setup! Really excited to watch, have absolutely loved mine never had a single hiccup in three years of ownership but I have had similar results with cheap 55 grain ammo around 2 MOA it definitely prefers 77's those I can usually get around 1 MOA and on a good day just under

Jared Strawn

First off, let me tell you. That muzzle device is on tighter than shit. I Also only paid 550 for mine, so those that are paying upwards of $1000, I am truly sorry! I currently have a strike eagle 1-8x, and I kind a wish I would did the 16x due the eye box relief. I have a zero’d it but I’ve I have not shot it in quite some time due to the scamdemic and moving. So once I get situated and find a range, I’m hoping to report back with better news than Nutn reported. This is also a 1 to 8 twist barrel so I would presume 62 grain’s would perform the best out of this barrel.

Racing Psychosis

I just go get my kart racing tool box find a wrench and take the muzzle brake off ..... yea I got more tools that I even know.....metric and U.S......because they seem to use a combination of all of them.

Joshua Lund

Caught that too, had to back up the vid to check myself

Anthony Schaad

Awesome GRV Nutn! I actually bought the original Ruger Ar556 on ur recommendation when it first come out . It’s definitely a great gun, I got into some higher end stuff n sold it to my father so I know he has a reliable AR on hand n ready to go lol. N just sayn I know u have a bunch of black rifles but there is on company I haven’t seen yet and it just so happens to be one I own. If ya ever get ur hands on one, the Barrett Rec7 DI is really a outstanding rifle. Mlok version, don’t know if u could even find one now , I heard Barrett ceased all Civilian operations n are solely focused on military contracts right now but it would e interesting to hear your take. Anyway great content Nutn!

Zack Harris

Honest review, agree great features / value, accuracy improves when sampling heavier grains. Keep it up, Double owl.

Joshua Wilson

I, like a few others, cannot get it to play either. I have tried several times.

Heath Dietz

My wife bought me an ar556 MPR for Christmas last year $750 and it came with a free Ruger 10/22 from sportsmans warehouse. I watched the original video and thought to myself Ruger watched Nutnfancy and applied all of his recommendations to this gun. I have a Vortex strike eagle also Nutnfancy recommended on it and it shoots groups I am happy with probably 2 inches at 100yds off a rest.

Andrettski

I'm not Einstein when it comes to gun legalities/courts but I have wondered where are all the gun groups like the NRA with Kyle Rittenhouse and others self defense cases. Where's the support? I think we all need to step up and stop these ridiculous charges of murder when it's obviously self defense.

Andrettski

Thumbs up on more black GRW's. I never get tired of them. Thanks Nutn. Loved seeing Jardine in there then realized it was old footage. SHOUT OUT we miss you Jardine.

Aaron Walker

There just isn't any reason to have an 18 barrel if it is t accurate. The extra velocity won't help you if you can't hit anything far out.

Red dog 1

Yeah what a bummer that’s it’s not sub moa.

Red dog 1

If your wife bought you two guns she is a keeper for sure.

Shawn Kuse

Still looking to buy my first AR. Been watching all of the older vids to increase my knowledge. Haven’t shot an AR since my military days. To buy off shelf or build. That is the question. Owned the FJR. Now I ride a Goldwing. Thx Nutn for all that you do!

Rick Grad

I have one of the More Practice Rugers. I was using 69g and 77g IMI to test out accuracy...best I could get at 100 yards off a bench was just a little better than 1.5" groups. I really like how it shoots and for under $600 when I got mine, it's fine. I would not say it's on par with $1,000 parts builds, but its a nice rifle for $600. EDIT 3 shot groups with the Weaver Kaspa 3-9 Illuminated scope.

david rockwell

The hour is late. Buy a good quality, low cost AR now. Research, acquire parts and build your dream rifle in the days to come.

Kyle Soucy

I also wondered this!

Mike R

I agree with David I’ve started out accessorizing a Bushmaster thinking this was my GTW rifle only to completely change my mind 2 years later and build a completely different rifle I wanted. Get a decent low cost rifle and go from there once you start getting into this there will be new things you’ll want later. So then you’ll either update your current rifle or you’ll start on a new build.

Rusty Chains

Didn't the first version have 5R rifling? Or was that the S&W?

J Ram

Full disclosure....I'm a Ruger fan boy.....having said that you need to call a spade a spade....55gr Am Fed hitting about 1.5 MOA at 100yds with a can on it......but I still love it.....Preach on re Rock River Nutn, my very first AR purchased was a RR and I hit sub MOA on that all day long. Don't even get me started on my Ruger AR10....I just finally figured out the ammo to give me 2.5 MOA at 100yds (147gr Blazer Brass of all things), and 1" groups at 50yds.....but I love it too. Did I mention I was a Ruger fan boy? (still hurts my feelings when you talk about the Ruger American pistol being "ugly", lol)

Trey

Might want to look for an AK. 5.56 is getting stupid expenisive if you can even find it...

Harley

Video will not play on my iPhone......getting an error.

Rob Miller

Will not play for me. Older iPhone 6. Maybe that’s the problem?

Tommy F

Won’t play on my iPhone either.

Arthur Krieger

Can't get enough black rifle content Nutn!

Mike R

No I have a iPhone 11 with iOS 13.7 and it won’t work for me either.

Tommy F

I’ve got an X, IOS is up to date.

Matt P

@ Brett Andrettski Fightback.org or Fightback.com legal defense for Kyle. I believe they are currently trying to raise 1 million for his bail and their short as Wisconsin is a no bond state. It’s the same atty who represented Nick Sandman when he perpetrated the “face crime” of smirking uncomfortably with a person beating a drum in his face.

Rob Miller

Tried again tonight. No luck. Maybe tomorrow it will play for me.

HappyFrancisMacomber

If AR, Go to Palmetto State Armory now and get a MOE 16 in complete upper build kit and a lower. Put it together. Add minimal accessories over time. PSA AKs are awesome and out of stock....

Tommy F

Still no worky 😞

Rob Miller

Tomorrow is today and it still won’t play. But hey! I won’t go away into the fray because that’s not okay. I will keep faith and try again tomorrow if the Lord gives me another day to borrow.

Phake A'Count

I read that Ruger bought Marlin. That will be an interesting merger.

EthanRX

Thanks again Nutn. Appreciate all the new content lately!!!

Cali Carrier

I also couldn’t play it on my iPhone or through Apple TV on my Sony TV. Haven’t tried in a laptop, the only laptop I have is a work laptop and I can’t open Patreon with it.

Antonio Kheir

Can we see a review of that RPG? Thinking about adding it to my edc.

Shot442

Video will not play

Rob Miller

Y’all, I shared the video to myself via text and it finally played for me last night.

Casey Jones

Whoa! So when you listed the donors was that Kyle Rittenhouse of Kenosha, WI fame?

Shot442

Tried the suggestion but unfortunately the video still won’t play

Shot442

My early MPR is 5R as is my early S&W M&P Sport.

IndianaBen

Good grief just unforgivable. I love Nutn like a father lol seriously, but far from the first thing I’ve seen to make me discount virtually every accuracy report he’s given.

James Young

These were $599 in pre-covid days. It was an amazing price for the features. At that price this is a great gun. But at current prices...as you said I would prefer to build my own with my own choice barrel and weight lowering options I always add.

Donald Weber

Good rifles if you paid less than $700. They re not $800-$900 rifles. I have two of them and they had the same problems with both, mainly the handguards have no anti-rotation features and both of mine backed off when firing. Removed the oil from the barrel nut, locktighted the bolts and no problems since. Both of mine can be sub MOA with the right ammo. mm

Bentley

I have seriously been considering this rifle to fill a mid to long range role. But after the sub-par performance in the accuracy department, I find myself steering away. I had much higher hopes for the barrel quality here.

Shot442

Nutn, for the other vid that wouldn’t play you shared an alternative link. Can you do same for this one please?

Jerry Hall

I’ll be watching during my lunch break at work

watchman5

Please review the Sig 716i

Tommy F

I was having the same problem and I shared the video with myself and played it on the Brave browser

Ranchytoes

Can you release this on main channel? It won’t play in patreon for me.

Tommy F

I was having the same problem, click on “share” and play on another browser, Brave and Chrome both worked on my phone.

Lee Harrell [W5GCF]

Wait a minute! Is Kyle really a donor or is this a joke?

Big50

Keep doing the black rifle reviews i like learning about variations of the same rifle too.

Daniel Herb

Love the same but new versions haha
