Ruger AR-556

Got er home. I like the sites and compact nature of it. Close quarters it would work nicely. Seems like about half the weight of the bushmaster which has a bi-pod on it.

The wife hates the cleaning fluid smell. Have to go out to the garage or barn to do it. 

 
What round should a guy get for AR556? (Target/home defense) (no steel)  I've looked at a bunch of them but can't decide.  
 
I have been just using Wolf ammo .223, since I can get it for about $6 locally for 20 rounds. They are just FMJ, great for target shooting. Home defense maybe a Hornady.

That's a good price. Do they group well? I suppose in a defense emergency, they'd take out an attacker.

Quite well actually. I have used Wolf ammo a lot. Russian made and always a good price. My carry stuff I always go with a hollow point, but for target shooting works great.

 
When you think about it, that's what 22 magnum prices were for the longest time. I wonder why 22 magnum gouges a guy so heavy?
