The 30 Remington AR (RAR) was introduced in 2008 to provide improved performance on deer-sized game in Remington's R15 semiautomatic rifle. The 30 RAR uses a 1.53-inch case with a rebated rim, based on the 450 Bushmaster case necked down…which was based on the 284 Winchester case. The 30 RAR develops 2800 feet per second with a 125-grain bullet, thus is considerably faster than the 7.62x39mm cartridge. Without question it is a very capable deer cartridge in the AR platform, but it has not gained a lot of popularity. Remington is sole producer of ammunition and primary source of rifles. — Craig Boddington
