You’re Using The WRONG Ammo In Your Gun 

The right ammo is the ammo I can afford

"Every clock's wrong twice" lol

These types of conversations, beer, whiskey, a grill/smoker = happiness.

Matt down right spit'n facts. Preach brother!

Huge shout out to Matt ! He schooled this subject ! Jason did a great job as well on the .300/8.6. Great job to Kaya for furthering his knowledge, I am right there with you, I learned a lot from Matt today, thanks again, this video was 5 stars !

Thanks for explaining it in a more simple way, Matt.

Thank God for PSA's AAC Ammo. we can now get somewhat better or match grade ammo, now not just 5.56 it is even in 7.62x39 steel case and 5.45 and several other calibers, but from what I understand it still needs a bit more QC. However if it were not for AAC 99% of us (like me) would be stuck with standard ball M193 or M855...

Love this episode ❤️❤️❤️❤️! Learned alot! Would be cool to see a "real world" demonstration of this!

For a gen 3 G17 I use Federal Brass 115gr FMJ and CCI/Blazer 115gr and 124gr FMJ for the range and for defense ammo I use Federal HST 124gr JHP.

I can hit 1,000 yards with .55 grain ammo easy. The trick is to move the sign closer.

1:7 twist for everything and here’s my logic: Longer ranges with 556 you’ll always use heavier bullets (77gr) which works well with more twists/rotation. For shorter ranges it doesn’t matter if you over stabilize with 55gr, CQB doesn’t need the same tight tolerances as long range shooting. Someone please explain why you’d ever need 1:12?

I luv these kind of videos I know I've read all this information before but it doesn't stick like having it verbally and visual explained. THANKS GUYS! appreciate the content

Very helpful information, thanks Matt!

That is pitch, yaw is port/starboard or left and right.

Warning: 62gr is typically steel penetrator which is not allowed in indoor ranges and not a good idea to use on steel targets (duh).

Matt made my brain start to smoke this is a good physics lesson whew I need a ibuprofen

Great topic gang! Thanks Jason... now I'm going to have to buy a Q for my 300blk rifle... AND add another cartridge type and pick up an 8.6!!!

Great intro into a much more complex issue. Let's go down the rabbit hole of not just bullet weight and bullet type, we can talk powder charges, types or brands of powder, primers, brass...oh my!

Great info video Matt👌✅ we appreciate this

thanks matt, learned alot.

This is an excellent explanation. Good job boys

Well done Matt! Great presentation and well explained.

The XM16s and M16s, M16A1s went to a 1:12 twist to stabilize the accompanying Tracer round The M855 round stabilizes at 1:9 but the spec again went to 1:7 for the accompanying tracer rounds.

Thank you for breaking it down in terms of you can understand very informative video

Great update

My nephew shared this video with me. He's just starting to get into ballistics. For me, it was a good refresher corse. 👍

Thanks for the info. 🍺 Only knew to not mixup brass & lead jacket

great info, could u do a vid on traveling in and outside the country w firearms?

Jason! Absolutely love Barnes Tax tx 110s. They're like expanding broadheads when they open up... Got mine up to 2300 fps out of my 9 inch Radian. Don't start handloading, you will become addicted btw. I have a ton of 168's for 308 that I use for subsonic range fun as 300 blk subs.

5 views? Those are rookie numbers... Ya gotta pump those up kid... 😂

Great video guys. I was recently thinking about twist rates, grain weights and what was best cartridge for my guns. Then presto! You make a video about it.

Do one for pistols! I’m very interested in that. I’d like to know what would be the best for certain kind of firearms 2011, 1911, striker fired pistols. Glocks, staccato, sig hammer fired guns. That would be a good video! TIA

In 5.56 I use the 62 or 77 grain

Omg get into reloading even more options on ammo

1:5 300 blk are hard to find.. so i imagine most people are shooting subsonic 300 blk just fine with a 1:7

what ammo do you suggest for a 7.5" 5.56 barrel with a 1-7T?

Great video, I buy specific a specific gr [weight] of ammo for specific firearms, it's just the best way to train

Nice informative video.

Good video, a lot of useful informations! Thank you guys ;) I've a Diamondback DB15 with 1:8 twist-rate, it is optimized for 62gr. but works really well also with the cheaper 55gr. I never tryed to use it with the 77gr. match ammo, so i cannot say how it performs with that type of bullets.

[18 in barrel 1:9] = [16 in barrel 1:8] = [14 inch barrel 1:7] I have two guns match the 1st and 2nd config, 1 gun in 18 in barrel 1:7 (will need to try 77 gr on this gun).

I had a bear creek 223 wylde. at 25 yards with 55 grain, it was a coffee can group. with a 64-69 grain, it shrank to a nickel sized group. I believe it had a 1 in 10 twist rate.

Content getting better thank you guys for the information. Convinced me that I zero with my 62 gr 1/7 twist. Also get in stock a Ruger 10/22 with the stainless btm stock I’ve been looking to buy from you guys.

I like criterion core for DI and PWS for piston- both 1:8 and I have a better choice of ammo when I restock, which happens much more often then a new upper or barrel

Very interesting, problem here is finding all these different weights.

But more grains = more betterer right?

Another great educational video, tell Kaya to give up on the acting gig! 🤣

what gun do you recommend for a first time elk and deer hunter. I have had 308 and 30-06 recommended ass all around best first time hunter guns.

Makes sense.

Great video good explanation about 10 years late; if you don't know by now the grain weight to your twist ratio youre never gonna be efficient

does the same rule apply to handguns?

Enjoyed the show. A bit loose on some of the nitty-gritty details, but that is not what the channel is about. You guys might want to check the relevance of weight in bullet stabilization, long copper monos are a good reference point. And get a calculation how much energy is actually created by the faster spin, hint - very little (the copper petals blender effect might be a different story 😁)

I prefer 75gr bthp’s out of a 12.5” with 1:7 twist. I’m getting just over 2450 fps

What is Jason’s background?

just here for matt to bring up AKs

Clint lookin a lot bigger... and blacker these days

There are sweet spots. I have a 1 in 7 ar ...it shoots 50 grs well and 60+ well..but not 55gr as well. My 1 in 9 bolt gun shoots 40 to 60 well. But 62 gr not so well. The 50 in the 1 in 7 is an anomoly. But I have heard others say the same. Harmonics or something. I guess you just to have to try it.

If Kaya is shooting 500 yds and not accurate, it isn't the gun or the ammo. 😂

My questions are more for Jason: for 300 blackout, I see a lot of ARs with a 16 inch barrel and it has a 1:7 twist rate. Is that a good barrel length and twist rate combination for the caliber? And Is there a barrel length that I would need to go to a 1:5 twist rate? This was a great video gents, I learned a lot.

stay informed and use the proper ammo for each firearm

Good explanation! Maybe Byron Litz would evev approve.....

Cannelure?

I hav a 1:7 barrel and it dont like 55gr but it likes 69 an 77 gr bullets 😊👍🏻👍🏻

No Clint…No Classic. End of story

Can Clint come back please?

Your closeups need to be better. We are not seeing what you are trying to show. This is a great topic with needed information.

You guys should get that piew view or pewpew or what ever the heck the guy that dies all the crazy shots

This video serves as a great reminder to all gun owners to double-check their ammo choices and stay informed about what works best for their firearms.

Love Ya'll. Big fan of the content and I'm not criticizing you guys at all, but just suggest that you ease up on the "let's talk about it" phrase. It's a good one... but not every every video

MANUFACTURERS KNOW MOST OF CIVILIANS BUY THE CHEAPEST AMMO....BUT THE MOST AVAILABLE TWIST RATE IS 1:7

Everything is always 5.56... why is there absolutely nothing having to do with folks that run .300 blk?

Big love fam fam
