[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 291625, member: 313"] The primary difference in the cases is reportedly that the military 5.56 cases are heavier and have less case capacity. Thus, resulting in higher pressure than a .223 case with a similar load. Guns chambered for the 5.56 usually have longer throats to accommodate longer/heavier bullets. [/QUOTE]
