Personally, in a non match setting, it doesn't make sense to me to shoot anything that wont fit in a standard AR magazine. To me thats the whole point of shooting the AR.
Back with a bit of time...
As noted I"m telling him how to single load because thats what he wants to do.
You post up no sense in single loading for an AR.
My input about mag lenght 80s was its basically not a workable thing, and not everyone needs a mag full of ammo just because they have an AR.
Kind of a personal thing. I have mag length loaded 75 amax and done just fine though.
But the man asked about 80s, not 77s or 75s etc....
80s will trump the lighter ones in the wind, and for some but not all folks some are thinking longer shots, more wind issues and want to be able to have the best wind bucking round working in the AR. And not worry if they have 19 more rounds quickly.
Just different uses for the AR.
