Clearly KZfaq wasn’t happy with the human error on the first two shots at 500. Must do better next time

Everyone, this is a re-upload. Please be careful in the comments section. While we disagree with the ruling on the previous publication, we publish on their platform, so they have all the rights to do whatever. We had backup plans that we had put together last year, but didn't expect to need to push them ahead so soon. Will update with the backups soon, but take care for the meantime.

Please note that these are normally shot using 5.6mm/GP90 ammo and not .223. These rounds were specifically designed for the sig550's series and offer greater stability in air resulting in higher precision. I have shot and compared standard 5.56 and 5.6 ammo at a 300m range in Switzerland. The difference between those rounds in this rifle is pretty big.

Damn Gun Jesus with the knife kill to avenge his fallen brethren. Lucas would be the scrub to rush B with a P90 lol.

KZfaq just can't stand Henry flexig his PS90 SBR

Put something on your website that lets us register for a newsletter. That way if things go south, we can stay in the loop.

Some easter eggs on that intro on the kill feed.

I could not think of a single reason why this was put down on the first place, yours channel has been costantly putting out similiar content whit no harm done to enyone. Glad things got sortet out. 👍

I specifically didn't watch this cause I wanted to watch it later, but then it got removed

Happy to see this video is back up

Thank you guys for making these fun videos. Mixing informative study, good editing, and entertaining commentary makes for a real treat.

Awesome work gents, please keep doing what you're doing. The history, discussions and datapoints you bring up are truly second to none. Cheers!

I'm glad that you reupload the video!

We love you Henry. Keep fighting the good fight!

Glad you reuploaded, I missed it on the first go. I like the style aesthetics of SIG, own a 55x model for the U.S market, love it.

Glad to see you got yours back guys. Take care and God bless.

Watching all the way through again and hitting that like button so it’s clear you have our support.

Oh yeah, and here we are! I've been waiting patiently.

Nice to see this video back on air.

. Again, thank you for demonstrating the trigger adjustments. Most people forget about it and just live with the trigger the was it was set by the last user; if ever set properly

I absolutely love the Sig 55x pattern rifles. I just wish I could afford them.

Good to see its back

Always Love your videos! Was just watching The Bourne Identity and started looking for this rifle. I have a Sig 556 and absolutely Love it!!!

The Sig 550 series of rifles are so amazing

4:29 I love that audio.... "Fuck!" you can just barely hear it, and that somehow makes it funnier. 😂

Been watching for 3yrs great job 👍👍👍👍👍

Very interesting, thanks, guys. And to be honest, yes I would buy it as a collector's item. I like the way this gun looks like.

Woooo! Welcome back!

We love you Henry!

Glad to see it made it back

Thanks chaps. Always good to see your videos. KZfaq need a reality check.

We love you Henry

Some great accuracy 👌..Pretty impressive

Good, it's up again!

Subscribed, despite the ongoing trends. Love your objective & funny review.

Sweet looking rifle!

ITS BACK BABY

Holy moly that optic is a big boy!

I’m liking this video again because there was nothing wrong with the original version.

Already watched the first upload, watching again just because I can

Quite frankly, great review sir.

Love the content, and I love my slate black industries stop and panels! Thanks gents!

Heck yeah. Would love to buy one. Thx.

Nice, I see a type 99 up there.. can’t wait to see that practical accuracy test. It’ll be interesting to see how it stacks up against the 1903.

I really enjoyed the talk at the end discussing the twist rate and employment methodology. Both topics I had in my head the entire video. I agree with your assessment. The MK12 is a better modern day tool.

Nice rifle. I think that it is optimised for GP 90 ammo (Swiss military), which is 62 grains, so the 55 grains is probably too light.

This gun looks so cool

I would love to see one of these for the Ruger 10/22. It's just a dinky little plinker, but almost everyone has one and I'm sure people would like to see what their gun could do in your hands!

Finaly. Love it!

Another rifle with a somewhat adjustable or tunable trigger that most people don't realize is the Steyr AUG. More specifically the trigger bar and it's engagement with the trigger can be tuned but nobody knows it. TnSteyr has a video about it.

Ian with the FAMAS.

Aayy, I recognize that rifle. Pro-tip: it shoots better if you're wearing a shemagh. 😁 Great video Henry, I've been looking forward to this one!

... after seeing a few of these practical accuracy videos, i would love to do this course with my ruger ranch rifle.

Great video

It's back

Would love to see an Sig MCX review

Speaking of classic police snipers there's two I really want to see, one is an extremely rare one but my personal favorite bullpup sniper design of all time. The Walther WA2000 in .300 Winchester Magnum. Another police sniper but this time also used by the Australian army and my personal favorite bolt action sniper rifle, the Blaser Jagdwaffen R93 Tactical 2 in .338 Lapua Magnum.

Great video! I don’t think I would ever buy one but pretty cool. A Recce rifle does it for me just fine.

can't wait for you to get your hands on a PSG1.

glad you got it back up. _that's what she said_

At the age about 19-20 i read a local magazine that made article about this rifle and quickly put Sig 550-1 sniper as ultimate rifle in my mind without knowing the real performance of this rifle. But after see the vids, i realized that at that time, rifle that has high price quickly regarded as high end accuracy rifle without real tested. Thats the irony of old magazine years ago. But still if i have opportunity to own that rifle, i will buy with heartbeat

The new gun Sig 750 Creedmoor! Awsome

Gun_Jesus with a FAMAS that's a really nice touch

Love this gun SG550 and AR family SG552 since I play CS1.6 in my child's time.

Thank you

dewtail of gun jesus using the FAMAS in the CS intro

Interesting - I just bought a PE90 (here in Switzerland) and I'm experiencing some teething problems. I used to shoot K31 and Standard Rifle in 7.5 and found them a lot more 'forgiving'. Perhaps it's the wider front sight on the 90. Man, would I like to try a scope like that.

Most of my 5.56x45 is a 1x9 twist and I shoot with a 79 Gr. Projectile sometimes a projectile at 62 Gr.(I think, at least in the 60s). The platform is a heavy barrel AR rifle manufactured by Colt and Bushmaster. My actual Sniper Rifles are Remington Bolt guns purpose built from Remington both with very heavy barrels and further refined by a gunsmith and setup for LEO in 7.62x54 using hand loads developed for each individual rifle. Barrel lengths were 24” and 28”. The 24” is considered for Urban environments and concerned with ingress and egress. Each having sub-MOA at 100 yds. For LEO as you know these platforms are sighted in at 100 yds.(yeah, I’m an IT guy but I am also LEO trained by one of the larger LEO agencies in the US, enough said on that). Topped with a Leupold Mark 4 scope on all my sniper rifles Researching on acquiring a 3rd use sniper platform. I have some semi collectible old school platforms I use as range toys, nothing I would bet my life on or compete with, just for having fun. Would I purchase something like this, Well... for collecting YES, bet my life on NOT. I’ve use my Remingtons out to about 850 yards with good results. Not on square range. We were training and were in all type of situation from wooded to urban. Again, my results were good as I’m not a professional like yourself but I train to keep my skill up and I have the opportunity to train with LEOs(I am fortunate to be able to do this) Again, I really enjoy you channel and always learn something, Thank You !! FYI - Really Enjoy your channel Ricky from IBM, Ret k4vms@comcast.net

yes, i would buy...accurate enough and the cool factor!!

I just want to note that Henry got a cleaner run to 500 with the SG550 with iron sights, lol. Granted, the wind is nuts.

Gun Jesus with Famas...damn just how accurate is that..

Keep up the good work. :-)

Nice scope!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I owned a Sig-550-2 for about a year (2002-2003 or so) and for me at the time, it was a Grail rifle. I liquidated a lot of guns to buy it (going rate at the time was north of $8k) and bought about a dozen extra mags, a scope mount, and thought it was the bees knees. Until I shot it. At that point, the rose colored glasses shattered. It was extremely nose heavy, heavier (subjectively) out front than a heavy barreled A2 and the balance just didn't work for me. The bipod seemed a bit overly tall and made it uncomfortable to shoot prone and don't even think about shooting it off a bench using the bipod. But what really did it to me was when the whole "Swiss Accuracy" myth was shattered. The best groups we could get, on average, were ~2MOA, some smaller, some larger, but a free float AR from a decent manufacturer was printing much better. There was a certain amount of cachet that it brought to the table when you took it out of the case. You knew that no one else would have one, and short of the FAMAS (or the rumored 1 to 3 SA-80s that were supposed to have been imported but no one ever saw), it was perhaps the most unique combat rifle of the era. That said, someone offered me considerably more than I had in the entire package about a year after I bought it and out the door it went.

Ref barrel twist, I've a Remington 78 bolt 223 with a 1/12 twist (scoped) that is capable of less than 1/2" three shot groups at 100yds using Hornady 60gr TAP ammo. This ammo is flat base, and the barrel is decently long at 20". I'd always thought 1/12 would only stabilize 55gr and below.

Stuff happens all the time with camera equipment good review anyway & keep up the good work 👍🏻

the amount of bearing surface on the projectile also effects spin stabilization

If I had the money then yes mostly as a collector and fan of classic sig products.

This is a very nice rifle to have a friend own. I don't have a role for this rifle that is not much better and more economically filled with a HB ar or a Remington 700 . A 1 in 7 to 1 in 9 twist medium to heavy barreled AR with a Wylde chamber is hard to beat for heavier bullets at these ranges. I do consider the Remington slightly more precise even with the slower follow up and overall rate of fire.

Woah what's with the reupload? Now I know the reason why it wasn't here when iI was going to watch

I just love our little talks, Henry-- 🖒😎 Btw, re: buying this rifle-- in a practical sense, I tend toward not buying uber expensive rifles whose job can be done better by lesser expensive, yet still good quality rifles. Not trying to be mean, I just don't like spending money on firearms just to collect them, fwiw I prefer all of my weapons to not only please me aesthetically, but be extremely practical, as well. Perhaps that will change in the future, I don't know...

I would buy one of those if I had the money boi that thing is beautiful

Yea what people don't understand is that the SIG550 is specifically made to fire the special Swiss 5.6/GP90 loads but still able to chamber 5.56mm and in fact, almost all Swiss SIGs from the 550 series can fire both ammunitions well. It was stated that in good conditions with the 5.6mm, a normal 550 can square up to just 1.10 MOA or even tighter groupings at ~ 0.95 MOA and for a semi-auto rifle, that's PSG territory and it's a real good rifle. Also, the purpose built for the 550 Sniper was totally different and the philosophy was the same behind the 5.6mm rounds. So unlike other nation where they think of long range shots before anything else, the Swiss had a different philosophy. When they tested out the original standard 5.56mm of that time, they soon realized that the capability of it fell drastically even from the M16 of that time at 350m which was something they can't take as their ideology was to shoot at one mountain range (alps) to another range which the average gap between them would be about 400-500m apart, surpassing the rifle ability that they tested. So, the Swiss came up with a plan and started to make a heavier 5.56mm bullet with just finer powder that burns more efficiently and then slap it into their rifle. What they soon realized was that the 550 prototype that they fired it with soon achieved great MOA scores of about 1.40 - .1.8 with various shooter with the 5.6mm caliber and also somehow able to chew up the normal NATO SS109 5.56mm at that time too. With the normal SS109, the same set of shooters were able to get a range of 1.6 - 2.10 MOA which, for an assault rifle of that time, was extremely on par with the M16 and even surpasses many other 5.56mm rifles from other nation like the HK33 and even the bullpups like the AUG and FAMAS. However, the Swiss soon realized that the GP90 might be superbly expensive to manufacture for the general masses of the Swiss army thus they just issued the rounds for Swiss military competitive shooters, sniper units in the military and police units whereas the others use the 5.56mm that the Swiss themselves could readily get from either the US or any other NATO allied countries.

Welcome back, my comment is here to serve

Have you guys ever done the PSG 1? I know they are hard to come by but would love to see you guys run one if you can.

I would buy it. Only if it was able to snap shot at 100m with in a 3" of center. I would prefer a 7mm aka 30 cal variant. 1.8 twist to 2 with a long heavy 20" barrel to help harmonising projectile to flight path. If the barrel walls are too thin the projectile rattles and deharmnises with its intended path. No matter how tight the fit in battery. I like Henry's lever. They have heavy barrels, consistent groups through all kinds of ammo. Anyways fen-shway great content.

We love you

Reuploaded 🔥🔥🔥

Love to see a swedish mauser in action.

Being currently in law enforcement I know many swat snipers that use 16” barrel ar platforms in both 556 and 308. Also I don’t see any department in the us spending sig 550 money when like you said a mk12 platform outperforms the 550 at a much lower price point

THANK YOU for using CS 1.6 sounds =)

Greetings from Ticino Switzerland! ;-)

"Boom! .... Everyone goes home except for the terrorists." These are the callbacks of greatness.

thx for the video. sig 550 named fass90 in switzerland. without scope soldier train shoot 300 Meter.

Impressive

nice

Just an Idea you guys should do an SMG practical accuracy to 150-250 yards with SMGs, Long barreled pistols and Machine pistols. Starting with 50 75 100 125 150 etc. Also we want an M1 30 Carbine on the 500 course real bad btw. Just an idea that would help your channel hit a like if you agree. It would be cool to see what an 8.5 inch 44 magnum with a scope would do an a 200 yard course or a MP5.

Спасибо за видео, коммент для продвижения

would love to see a galil ace .308 practical accuracy video

Everyone forgets that projectile length is a huge factor in stability more than projectile weight
