AR in 5.8x45? trying to get ideas for my next build, I have

Why not 6.8 spc?

Where would you buy 5.8 chink shit?

He wouldn't he just wants attention with a thread so he can post on crunchy roll that he's talking to friends right now

OP if you don't do 6.8 after 5.56 and 300meme you're an idiot

>>32331687
1. Literally why? It does the exact same shit as 5.56 but worse.
>same bullet weights, same caliber, lower velocity
2. You can't buy 5.8xchinkshit ammo ANYWHERE, and we don't even know exact chamber dimensions because they've never submitted it for SAAMI or CIP approval.

>>32331687
>Trim cartridge down and fire form it to a 6mm diameter bullet
>Load it with a 71gr or 77gr round
>Chamber pressure of 41,500 psi
>pick n choose brass or steel
>Get an upper able to chamber 6mm
Hope you don't blownup your face in the process

I'd rather have one of these bad boys in 5.56/6.8/.300 instead of an AR in 5.8

They're dogshit, ask Canadians about it.

>>32331687
can someone please explain to me why you wouldn't want as FEW calibers as possible?
for me I'm gonna try to not go past
>9mm
>.45
>38 special & 357
>5.56
>7.62x39
>308
you just end up spending so much more
I mean if you're a richfag then yeah, fuck it, I guess but, I'd rather have 5k rounds of 5.56 than 2.5k rounds of 5.56 & 2.5k rounds of 5.8x45

>>32333181
More like meh and boring, some love theirs though according to Canada General

More calibers = more guns.

My guns that see the most range time only encompass 9mm, .45 ACP, 5.56x45, 5.45x39, 7.62x51, and 7.62x39, which I usually buy in bulk, but I have about a dozen other calibers that I reload 200-300 rounds every year for either hunting or special snowflake plinking. .30-06 is its own special case because my Garand sees its share of range time but I mostly reload for that caliber.

5.8 penetrates armour very well. For the rest it's kinda meh, but it at least has that going for it.

There's an improved model that we should hopefully be getting sooner than later. Notice the position of the selector above the grip.

6.5 Grendel and 300BO the only worthwhile meme cartridges for the AR. Is 6.5G as good as 6.5CM? Hell no.

>>32331687
>.308

Get a SCAR.

You won't be able to buy 5.8 anywhere. Go 6.5 Grendel instead, it's actually good

>>32331687
Why not in 7.62x25? Cheap wacky round that fucks shit up.

>>32331687
Hey anon, just do a .458 MEMECOM for maximum mallninja. Either that or 6.8 and make an SPR out of it.

Wait until the surplus comes, anon. It might be 40 years, but it's coming.

It's coming...
