I have just started looking at buying an AR.  I dont know quit what to get.  I want something rugged, reliable and something that will be pretty accurate.  I dont want to have to be so careful with it that if i bump it into a tree or something that it will be way off.  I want an all around sturdy and reliable gun.  I dont really want to spend a grand on it though.  What should I look at getting?

Thanks for all the help!

Bushmaster is definitely a good choice to start.  Relatively inexpensive without sacraficing quality.
