Ive got a DPMS 223 upper with their 16" heavy SS fluted BBL, 1-9. It shoots 40gr bullets great at 5/8" and 3500ish. I wanted to shoot 55-60 and cant get the velocity I think i should have for the bullets to work well. Ive tried many powders and can get almost 3000fps, but with pressure. 2850-2900 is do-able.
So the thot in my mind is to get an 18 or 20, but this thing is heavy enuf already. Im torn cuz it shoots 40s so good and dont want to loose that, but my mind tells me I need to be 3000+ for the heavier bullets to work. Im gonna try some 50 Vmax next and may be split the difference.
