I have not shot a ruger556, but have a sig m400 (sigs DI ar15) and my cousin has a sig 516 both rifle shoot great and are reliable. I have probably shot close to 3000 rounds out of my m400 with no problems and have had no problems while shooting the sig 516 either. Both have great accuracy the 516 is heavier then the m400 because of the railed front handguard and a lot more expensive too because its a piston operated ar. You can't go wrong with a sig..

keep on the lookout if noscade and dirtylickens have another range day
i'll be sure to show up then

i mostly go to the range on thursday (my day off) and then usually near the end of the day since i would rather not wait for a bench
i live on the east side, so it's convenient for me to go late in the day since i don't have to fight traffic home

I have a PWS and I swear by it. Best rIfle for the money in my opinion.
The piston system is incredibly reliable and it shoots extremely accurate,
I put it to the test recently and submerged it in water. It performed flawlessly as soon as I picked it up to shoot.  :geekdanc:

Went to check out the 556 and 516 piston rifles today, I must say they both feel great in your hands. Lighter then I expected , really leaning towards the 516. Don't know the actual weight but it feels lighter then the ruger and feels more natural at the trigger
