Yeah… i wanna be a really big bodybuilder.
A casual 8-12% is fine by me, and at LEAST 220lbs. thats 16 stone in brit money, and for a 5’ 8" guy it is fucking large.
WHEN i get to that, i will determine if 240 is desireable or attainable, then move up if needed. I suspect 220lb will be about the most my frame could handle.

I’m 5’8" and walk around at 220 pounds right now. Not at 8-12% bodyfat, probably closer to 16-18% but in a t-shirt nobody has a clue. I got asked how much I could bench while checking out food at the grocery store by the bag-lady. I get stared at. It’s constant. At 5’8" there is no reason to think you can’t reach around 240 relatively lean if you put in the work. That’s a big IF. I know for a fact that I can still fill out more weight and plan on doing so. Best of luck to ya.
