[QUOTE="venatic, post: 649142, member: 33745"] I have not been able to find any instances where there has been a problem shooting .5.56 in a .223 but maybe I have not looked in the correct places. I do that that 5.56 ammo is shot in .223 chambered weapons all the time because I have seen it... not by me because I never use factory stuff. My .223 loads are probably hotter than the 5.56 stuff.:rolleyes: There is such a wide variance from chamber to chamber and throat dimensions on .223s I just don't see from a common sense standpoint how that it's a valid concern. Lawyers.:cool: [/QUOTE]
