I have a 'Field Locker' which, as I recall, is a Doskocil. A very durable plastic 2-gun case. Padded, eggcrate-type foam. Three very strong latches per side. It is capable of holding my scoped bolt-actions with additional room, even ammo. It should be able to handle the 15 with its pistol grip (minus the mag).
Short comings :
Long - Have to drop the rear seats of my car to fit the case in. Somewhat unwieldy, particularly with two guns in it (weight).
Feet - The four molded-in feet have sharp corners that tend to snag on carpeting, upholstery, etc.
Interior Clearance - With a sunshade attached to a scope, it comes very close to the plastic edges of the inside. A good bump could cause the gun to shift (despite a tight fit between the foam pads) and damage the scope.
Flex - The plastic does flex a bit if you have alot of stuff in the case. You might have to close the lid a couple of times or press in a couple of places so the lid and body edges line up.
Water Proof - Not.
Overall, however, I think its a good buy at under $50. (I think I paid $35-$40. It was a long time ago.) It can take a beating and you won't mind the dings and scratches.
If you want something a little more durable and water tight you might want to try a Pelican or Browning (which I think is made by Pelican). I've been meaning to get a couple.
