The .458 SOCOM (11.63×40mmRB) is a moderately large round designed to work in an AR-15 platform.This is achieved by installing a 458 bolt and barrel. The 300-grain (19 g) round offers a supersonic muzzle velocity of 1,900 ft/s (580 m/s) and 2,405 ft⋅lbf (3,261 J), [1] similar to a light .45-70 but with a much smaller case.
While artillery grain dimensions might be several inches or centimeters, the standard grains of military rifle propellant were 0.085 inches (2.2 mm) long and 0.03 inches (0.76 mm) in diameter. The Army identified this military rifle propellant as Pyro DG (for diphenylamine, graphited), and 500 tons per day were manufactured by various plants ...
Typical .375 SOCOM loads will launch a 200 grain bullet 2400 feet per second from a 20" barrel. In a short barrel suppressed subsonic application, the .375 SOCOM can be made to easily cycle the AR-15 action, using fairly fast burning propellants such as IMR 700X, Trail Boss and VV N32C (Tin Star). This can be problematic with the .458 SOCOM ...
Any AR-15/AR-10 cartridge cases that are derived from the 7.62x51 can also be formed from these listed calibers. (7.62x51 & .308 are similar in external dimensions though the Brass has different internal capacity and Max PSI recommendations are different & Chambers are different.) AR-10 :The AR-10 is slightly larger and heavier than the AR-15 ...
In 1961, marksmanship testing compared the AR-15 and M-14; 43% of ArmaLite AR-15 shooters achieved Expert, while only 22% of M-14 rifle shooters did. Le May ordered 80,000 rifles. [8] In July 1962, operational testing ended with a recommendation for the adoption of the ArmaLite AR-15 rifle chambered in .223 Remington. [8]
