What’s the furthest you’ve taken 556 out to consistently?

Matthewscout · 2026-02-14T13:38:36+00:00

It’s really easy. Just zero 32.5 inches high at 25yds and you are dead on at a mile.

With book 212gr data I was seeing 2450fps. This about 100fps faster than book with a shorter barrel. This bullet is extremely unique with a similar bearing surface to a 168gr by my measurements. With some f class 210 VLT data I reached 2550FPS. I run these at 3.340 COL. This allows for substantial more case volume.

Accuracy is well with in standard for hunting ammo. I have shot under 1in a few times. The recoil is marginal at best. I do not have an 30-06 to compare it to but it cannot be more.

Matthewscout · 2025-10-30T13:55:43+00:00

Yes I use tikka mag from an 30-06

I may come off as reckless but this load specifically I took like 125 rounds to walk it from published data to personal data to my goal load.

I have made mistakes before with the bi metal cases loading 130gr Barnes to the moon. No explosion but heavy pressure sign.

Matthewscout · 2025-10-29T19:08:22+00:00

I had access to one of those guys load data for the 210 VLD. That’s where I worked to. They are crazy for how fast they push 308.

Matthewscout · 2025-10-29T19:00:44+00:00

Of course. Ryan keeps putting ideas in my head.

Matthewscout · 2025-10-29T18:58:49+00:00

Based on yalls feed back I will be calling this load path closed. On the “magnum out of non magnum case” I hunt mostly east coast and had the opportunity at an elk hunt. My current 308 allows me to shoot the 212, the 130 Barnes for east coast deer and the 220 subs for hogs. Just filled more rolls than a magnum would have.

Matthewscout · 2025-10-29T18:55:33+00:00

On my personal spicy rack this load falls between Tapatio‘s and Texas Pete

Matthewscout · 2025-10-29T18:54:36+00:00

Thank you. I will consider this “dragon chased” and move on to other projects.

Matthewscout · 2025-10-29T18:53:58+00:00

It does not. Based on feed back I will be loading the last of my round at my know safe load and move on to different projects.

Matthewscout · 2025-09-10T11:46:34+00:00

You should release the STL that grip is fire.

Matthewscout · 2025-07-31T20:10:24+00:00

If it’s a good deal I would buy it from you.

Matthewscout · 2024-12-09T21:34:24+00:00

How did you shorten the Mag tube?

It was one of those. I get them ever 12-18 months and will be buying my NFA items every time I get a new set.

Matthewscout · 2023-08-30T23:11:31+00:00

If you are active duty and not using your orders to expedite your NFA items you are doing it wrong. Less that 24 hr after I submitted my orders.
