Saying an SR-15 isn't awesome at dedicated three-gun competition is like complaining that trophy trucks aren't that great at rallycross - they're so impressive that even outside their primary strength, they're going to be more than adequate for the skillset of 90% of people who shoot 3G/2G competition. A lot of the guys who spend a ton of time posting about how much marginal gain they're getting out of piles of go-fast parts would poo-poo the SR-15 because it's only mostly as good. In the same way that I'm completely sure I could compete in tac iron with top of the line stuff and get humiliated by Jerry Miculek even if he was using a vintage lever gun and airweight .380, until you're at the competitive level where you're functionally an SME on dedicated hardware, the SR-15 is going to be more than adequate - and it does so much more. If you ever push beyond the accuracy capability, and find somewhere with lots of longer range stages, then the LPR upper becomes another interesting consideration, but the majority if 3Gun/2Gun competitions, guys who can shoot will show up with their MK18's and be surprised that they're finishing at least halfway up the order, despite bringing the 'wrong' equipment.
