Will 90 grain bullets fit in a 5.56 magazine or would the OAL be too much?

Will 90 grain bullets fit in a 5.56 magazine or would the OAL be too much? I can't find consistent information on this

    Depends on how far you seat them

      That's the issue, I'm afraid I'd have to seat them too far

    Only guys I've ever seen shooting 90's were using bolt guns, I imagine for this exact reason

    No. Those are not meant for .223/5.56 chamberings in even a bolt action rifle. That is a .22-250 bullet.

      Those are rookie numbers.
      .458 SOCOM bullets are up to 600gr.

    Depends how deep you load it. But I don’t think you’re gonna find any 90 grain .224’s with a short enough ogive for 5.56. The ogive will be seated below the case mouth.

    Check out 22 arc. I just read about it on TFB. 6 arc necked down to 22. Has much longer ogive space than 5.56.

    Do not seat 75 grain A-MAX, or any .224 bullet above 77 grains at magazine length for an AR-15. Any reloading manual will tell you this. Get a reloading manual.
