found out that the best was 55gr GGG and PMC, slightly worse 55gr Norma and Fiocchi and similarly 62gr Fiocchi. I will probably try other types of ammunition soon The results show that the well-k- nown tables and charts regarding matching ammunition to thread pitch are, like the Pirate Code, more a set of guidelines than rules. After all, the key thing in all this is the quality of the barrel, and this in FN is very high. On a well-made barrel with 1:7 twist rate, good results can be achieved even on 55 gr round- s(you need to match the round to the barrel, of course), without the need for a heavier bullet. Yes, I also shot at 200 and 300 m - at both distances I managed to get sub 2 MOA, while hitting a 30 cm metal target at 300 m is no problem at all. In my opinion, for a military- -grade weapon, the M4 from FN shoots great. WORTH IT OR NOT? Well, it depends. In that budget you can easily find a really fancy AR15 with M-LOK handguard, free floating barrel, fully ambidextrous and fully loaded! But it won't be a clone cor- rect gun. Well, and we want a mi- litary M4 "as close as we can get". Yes, there is an alternative (Bushma- ster), way cheaper, but without the KAC rails, foregrip, rear sight, etc.. Of course, as long as we care abo- ut such a configuration, because on the basis of the Bushmaster it is possible to make a neat, basic M4, which will only require the purchase of a carry handle, All in all, such a variant would be the best, as Bush- master has not been supplying the M4 to the DoD for quite a long time. But let's go back to the M4 from FN - without a doubt, it's currently the best off-the-shelf clone of a modern military carbine on the market with the proper kit already out of the box. And the most expensive. 55 www.fragoutmag.com FIREARMS
