    5.56 based upgrades?

    I have been looking at upgrades in caliber for the AR. There are obvious choices in 6.5 Grendel, 6.8SPC, 6mmAR, 458SOCOM, and 450 Bushmaster. Are there any upgrades that use the base 5.56 case or is it a moot point? Reason I am looking is I have a bunch of 5.56 P-Mags and any 6mm based upgrade...

    Range Report Q3131A POI versus any other 5.56 military ammo

    is there a point of impact shift on Q3131A versus say m193 out to 400 yards? or would it be relatively the same as in center mass hits to that distance?

    Range Report Match 5.56

    I just picked up a DPMS Panther SDM. 20" 1x8 twist. Any recommendations on match ammo? Bullet weight? I don't reload at this time and I've only dealt with match .308 so far so anyone with some insight would be greatly appreciated. Shooting to a max of 300 yards right now. Thanks.
