The MR556 has quickly become my go to gun. I'm really can't say anything bad about it. Had no failures to feed and no failures to fire 2 date. It took a while to figure out what bullets it likes, but since then I've discovered it is capable of very very good accuracy. It can easily put 15 rounds inside 1 and 1 half inches at 100 yards. Right now I'm shooting 65 grain Sierra Gameking and 69 grain Sierra Matchking. I've installed an ACOG 4X compact optic, which seems to be a perfect match for this rifle. I Recently purchased a POF 308, and wish I'd bought the HK 762 instead. I'm going to sell the POS oops make that POF and look for a 762.

My wife is getting me the 556 for my birthday. August seems like forever. I read about it or look at pictures of it online daily. Have not decided on optics yet. Gonna shoot the irons first though. Can't wait!!

Bridger10,
How's the cheekweld with the ACOG?
I have one in 3.5x in an ARMS mount and I don't seem to be able to snug in as much as when mounted to an AR with a SOPMOD.
I'm interested in what mount you're using.
Good luck shooting that fine rifle!!
