A:Curtis, the Ruger is reliable with a wide variety of factory new 5.56 and .223 ammunition. That said, I highly recommend PMC X-Tac : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/714008840/pmc%2bxtac%2b556nato%2b55gr%2bfmjbt%2b20rd%2bboxSee 3 more answers | -

A:This has a carbine length gas system. Almost all rifles with a barrel of 16 inches is considered a carbine. Mid length is 18 inch barrel and rifles 20-24 inche barrel. Sometimes that varies a little but just giving you an idea of how to tell from barrel length. Hope this helps. -

A:Andrew, this rifle has a 6.5 inch handguard. It can easily be replaced as this rifle design accepts most standard carbine length handguards.
