Anyone know where this falls in price compared to the other SR-25 models?
I can’t imagine price would differ greatly.
I’m wondering about barrel profile.
I’m gonna guess pretty close to the ECC, so that’s like what 4k+?
$5k+…Lawmens was selling them for just under $5300 last January.
And that’s probably one of the better prices around!
I was hoping they’d cut the weight by a pound or so…
Yeah, I was hoping for something like the M110K2.
+1
URX 4 and 1:10 twist, don’t know if barrel is dimpled or not but weight is same as ECC. Maybe going to provide a chrome lined reprofiled barrel with weight of ECC price of EC? Curious about twist change though, maybe geared for heavier bullets.
Weight is actually a misprint:
8.9 lbs with back up sights and 7 panels.
Lightweight barrel option in the works: SR25 ACC
Details to come.

That makes sense I figured there would be a small weight gain from URX4… Any idea where the price of the ACC will be compared to the APC?
A SR25 ACC definitely sounds interesting. I was very interested in the M110K2 idea, sounds like the next evolution of that line.
Another Great White Buffalo to tease us lowly civi’s
I just hope they done discontinue the URX3.1. I would love to see factory FDE as an option as well.
I’m pretty sure the URX4 will be standard on all rifles 2014.
However, the URX 3.1 will still be available for purchase separately.
I guess that wouldn’t be the end of the world, I am hoping they make an “EC” model for those of us that don’t need to spend an extra $1000 on features we don’t need.
Could someone kindly enlighten me on what the difference is between an EC vs. ECC and why one is 1k more?
Carbon cutter bolt carrier, ball dimpled barrel that is chrome lined, different flash hider and rail but I’m not sure those add to the cost difference. I think that’s it.
I’m sure production costs don’t equal that much more, but the carbon cutter BCG probably cost a good deal in R&D so the extra money being charged is probably to requip their initial investment. Being KAC doesn’t sell millions of rifles to civvies each buyer is going to pay a little more for those R&D costs I suspect… Of course I have no idea what R&D or production costs are but that’s my guess. Dimpled chrome lined barrel is a nice touch though, but I doubt that adds all that much to increased cost.
What I don’t understand is why KAC doesn’t offer the carbon cutter on the SR-15, I’m pretty sure they well many more SR-15s than they do SR-25s so that R&D cost would be spread out over many more buyers…
I agree, it would be awesome to know the exact cost to produce the rifle though to see what the actual differences in cost come from. I am sure that chrome lining and dimpling add a decent amount of time and complexity to production and therefore cost. Though in the AK and AR world the difference in price between a chrome lined barrel and non chromed barrel is pretty negligible.
More expensive rail, offset sights and test target also.
