A quick search on gunbroker shows that DMR models are pricing out under $1400 and .450 bushmaster model is close to $1100.

You’d need the 5.56 barrel and a 5.56 bolt. I’ve never seen the bolts for sale at retail, but maybe Templar Precision could get one, or perhaps contacting Bushmaster directly though it can be real hit or miss on ACR parts. The .450 and 6.8 conversion kits include the bolts, so going to those from 5.56 is a lot easier. |

I was getting wary but mine finally shipped! $1050 was hard to pass up. I hope this means they're finally going to be selling some 300BLK stuff since that'd be the only thing that makes me regret buying the 450

Ordered an ACR DMR for $1278 here:
https://dahlonegaarmory.com/product/bushmaster-90958-acr-dmr-semi-automatic-223-rem5.56-nato-18.5-301-magpul-prs-black-stk-black-melonite Always wanted an ACR, never really wanted to pay the price. How is a folding stock compared to the Magpul PRS? |

How is a folding stock compared to the Magpul PRS?  Attached FileI don't have a picture with the DMR stock on, but the folder works all right with a DMR setup. The PRS stock obviously has a better cheekrest and feels more solid in the shoulder given it's a solid stock with a more square inches on the buttpad. But the folder is serviceable on the DMR. The folding stock has 7 positions it can lock into between really long and really short, so odds are one will work for your needs. The long barrel is a might unwieldy should you want to claim #operatorStatus though. 
The old school tri-rail they use on the DMR is kinda dumb as well. I bought a MI 12" handguard to use with the DMR barrel. Still considering getting a KRG and painting it coyote though. The MI works just fine, the KRG looks better. And that's what really matters, right?

Thanks for this post. I assume you can't raise the cheekrest on the folding stock? I also plan on using the Midwest Industries handguard at sometime. I think I'll stick with the PRS stock and use my Vortex Viper PST 2.5x10. It's gonna be heavier than my 16" AR-10. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By yamahawarrior89:

That IS the raised position on the ACR folding stock. 
The PRS stock is much better in that regards. |

I ordered one of the DMR's. I'd regret it for years if I didn't.
I'm going to put a Nikon FX1000 4-16x50 on top in some Larue rings. Should be a fun shooter. |

I'm actually going to have my 450 bushmaster I ordered swapped over to a 6.5 Grendel. I havee 458 Socom and 45 Raptor in the AR platforms and don't really have a need for the bushmaster.
Im more stoked about the gun with it being that caliber. |
