Ive got some of those MK318 SOST rounds. There open tip rounds. They were designed specifically for the SCAR and are barrier rounds. The theory behind the open tip was to be able to penetrate glass windshield so to speak and the bullet stay on track after entrance through the glass rather than deflect off the glass like the M855. The M855 and M193 shoot accurately as heck through my AR, but the 62 grain SOST round im not real impressed with at least for my gun. They are here and there at 50 yards with about a 5 or 6 inch group. Whereas the other 2 or any Hornady ammo will just make a consistent circle. I had to have me some though lol. It would be very nice to have some Grendel rounds that could do what the M855 does. I have shot through a 1/2 inch of plate steel at 50 yards with that stuff. I would love to see the Grendel with a steel core penetrater in it. Like Bwaites said we all have dreams
