Ruger SR-556 6.8mm SPC Magazine - 5-Round

SR-556 6.8 SPC Magazine

This is Ruger's 5-round magazine for the SR-556 rifle chambered in 6.8mm SPC. The low capacity suits hunters in areas where game laws cap how many rounds a rifle can hold. The short body also keeps the rifle easier to handle from a bench, a shooting rest or the prone position. It is a factory part, so SR-556 owners get a magazine made for their rifle and caliber rather than an adapted one.

Features

• Factory Ruger Part — Ruger supplies this magazine (SKU 90349) for its own SR-556 rifle in 6.8mm SPC.
• 6.8mm SPC Caliber — Sized for the 6.8mm Remington Special Purpose Cartridge, a round heavier than 5.56mm that was developed to work in an AR-pattern rifle.
• 5-Round Capacity — Holds five cartridges, which meets common hunting capacity limits and keeps the magazine short.
• Stainless Steel Body — The body is stamped "SS" for stainless steel, a metal that resists rust better than plain carbon steel.
• Black Matte Finish — A flat black coating cuts glare and matches the finish of most rifles.
• Pressed Reinforcing Ribs — Ribs formed into the sides of the body stiffen the steel against flexing and dents.
• Magazine Catch Slot — A cut-out on the side engages the rifle's magazine release to lock the magazine in place.
• Low-Profile Length — The short body sits close to the receiver and is less likely to catch on a rest or the ground.

Fit And Construction

The magazine is built for the Ruger SR-556 in 6.8mm SPC. If your rifle is a 5.56mm SR-556, check the caliber before ordering. The stainless steel body has a black finish and pressed ribs, and the gray follower guides each round up to the feed lips. A spare or two gives a hunter fully compliant magazines ready to load before heading out.
