AR-15 Olympic Arms K16 Rifle - 5.56/223

Excellent Accuracy 09/19/2009
By Jeff
I just received my K16 a couple weeks ago and finally had and opportunity to load up some rounds hit the 100 yard mark. After sighting in I shot 2 groups with the first one coming in at .75" and the second at .65". The trigger was very predictable and No malfunctions at all. This was with a cheap 3X9 BSA scope I had sitting around so I am sure that with a 4X12 with a more fine cross hair, it would be even better. My load was 55gr sp with 26grs of Winchester 748.

The fit and finish of this rifle was much better than that of the other manufacturers which start with the first letters of the alphabet :) Solid, no play between upper and lower, lifetime warranty. a bit heavy due to the barrel, but it has outstanding accuracy, and variety of options for optics. Worth more than the price. Enjoy!

I was able to shoot my k16 today for the first time and I was impressed! I heard good and bad about olys. I tried fed gold medal match 63 gr and black hills 55gr blue box and at 100yrds both ammos were under an inch. I moved to 200yrds and I was still under an inch with blk hills and about 3inchs with the federal. I am pleased with this rifle and if you have a chance to buy one, BUY IT! The twist is 1:9 so anything heavier than 55grns is to much for target shooting. I think the others who bad mouthed olys products have never shot one or are just a poor shot. I am going to try 300 and 400 next weekend I'll let you know how I do.

I purchased the K-16 about six months ago, added a Burris 3-9x40, Magpul PRS, and Harris Bipod. It consistently shoots sub MOA groups at 100 meters, my longest presision shot to date is one shot, one hit at a 8" gong at 488 meters. If you want a great precision rifle that cost's half of a POF or Rock River this is your rifle.

K16 rifle SWEET 02/10/2008
By Bert Sloan
Bought one a month ago. Break-in ammo polished the bore and added a Millett tactical scope. Fired 200 rounds of UMC to season the barrel. Then copper solvent and cleaned it. I load 69 grain Sierra HPBT on top of med-hot load of H335 powder in Lapua brass. This rifle shoots sub MOA out to 200 yds easily. 100 yd groups with this match ammo hover around .6" on a rest. Trigger is better than most. Safe and smooth. Needs no other work. Fit and finish is top-notch. My son shoots 5" clay targets on the ground as far as you can see them. 350 yd head shots on coyotes are no problem with the right bi-pod. Great rifle for the price. Bushmaster and mil-spec mags work great. A little tight at first but works in just right. Great rifle for the money. . .highly recommended.

I love this rifle. It fires as fast as you can pull the trigger. Its a little heavy but not bad. A army soldier took a look at it and wanted to replace his issued M-16 with my K-16. It is a all around great gun. Order one and see how awsome the rifle is.

K-16 accuracy out of the box!!! 08/12/2007
By Chris White
This is a great rifle, especially for the money. If you spend the time to find the weight, and type of ammo it likes you'll be rewarded with laughably easy 1 hole groups. My particular rifle went from shooting 1 1/2 inch groups at 100 yards with cheap 55 gr. target ammo to shooting Consistent 1/4 inch groups at 100 yards using Hornady 55gr. V-max Moly coated rounds. Out of five 5 shot groups all had a c-t-c of .250-.235!!!!

K-16 the way to go 12/11/2006

Very accurate and well built weapon. The only thing I dislike is the weapon is on the heavy side. For the price and garrantee you can't beat it.

I bought this weapon for the bull barrel, accuracy, and price. I mounted a Simmons 6.5x20 scope and went to the range. Followed the barrel break-in procedures recommended by Olympic Arms and was indeed amazed by the accuracy of this weapon. I can shoot 1/2"-1" groups at 100 yds all day long! (probably capable of smaller but that's as good as I can hold) Overall fit and finish were very good. I am not dissapointed!
