[QUOTE="kc0pph, post: 609203, member: 35934"] I am not sure about the 7.62. My father has a DPMS 5.56 and he shoots pretty hot loads out of it. To my knowledge there is no difference in the brass for the 5.56 or 223. I have been told not to shoot 5.56 out of .223 But there are some loads for the .223 that are higher pressure than a 5.56. They also use the same dies. As always with reloading take baby steps and work you way up. The golden rule is take the recomended load and drop it 10% then work up from there. Also try the Horniday 69gn (I think that is what they are i know they are 69gn) and use Varget. Most accurate load we have found (Using CCI SR primers). [/QUOTE]
