Or you can go with an up and comer and CO business in Double-D armory. I've got about 1000rds through one of Jays rifles and it shoots pretty good..

Failing that, I'd tell you to go with a proven performer. Colt, BCM, LMT could all give you a solid rifle and you'd have enough left over to buy an optic compared to what those Reaper 33 cost.

You worked hard for that money. I wouldn't lightly spend it on some flash in the pan gimmick. But it's your money.
