Five Most Popular Rounds For The Ar15 Platform.

AR15 rifle is beyond doubt the most popular rifle right now, obviously if you have the money to buy it. This rifle is probably one of the most revolutionary rifles that have been designed by mankind. One of the reasons for its popularity is the fact it can be customized as per the consumer. It is the versatility and the effectiveness that makes it one of the most popular choice. but despite being so popular it is controversial as well, which comes from the cartridges used which according to many becomes its weakness at times. For the major part of its lifetime so far only two cartridges have been used successfully in it, 5.56 NATO and .223remington. these twin labelled cartridges are the ones which AR15 has been mostly chambered successfully, and it has digested these two quite easily as well. but many critics point out that this inability to be chambered with multiple cartridges is the biggest weakness of the AR15 platform. Although this weakness has somehow been resolved lately with so many manufacturers making cartridges which can be used in the AR15 platform. And all these companies claim to solve those problems which occurred earlier with 5.56 NATO OR .223 REMINGTON. although these claims are subject to verification. there are many other options as far as cartridges are concerned for the AR15 platform such as 458 SOCOM AMMO, 6.5 GRENDEL AMMO etc.

let us now look at the top five most useful and popular cartridges for AR15 PLATFORM. 

5.56 NATO \ .223 REMINGTON: this almost twin pair has been the most popular choice when it comes to selecting cartridges for the AR15 platform despite a few critics pointing out certain weaknesses and many new companies with new cartridges for AR15 claiming theirs are are are to be better. 

458 SOCOM: thing that stands out with 458 SOCOM AMMO is its performance in the short barrel and the availability of bullets in .458 diameter. .458 SOCOM AMMO is another popular cartridge for the AR15 platform.

6.5 GRENDEL: 6.5 GRENDEL AMMO uses .220 RUSSIAN as the parent case and it is claimed by few to be one of the most efficient cartridges that can be used in AR15 PLATFORM. 

.22 NOSLER: well this one is known for its velocity that too with fair stability. So for those who want such a cartridge, .22 NOSLER is the choice for them.
