[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 609538, member: 29890"] Both are interchangeable with the exception of an AR with a basic saami 223 chamber where there is almost no freebore/short throated and a steep leade angle then you will have brass flow issues as mentioned earlier. The dimensions, case wise of the 7.62 and 5.56 are the same externally but the millitary brass typically has less internal capacity. There are several variations in 7.62 and 5.56s in AR platforms, but the differences are all simply throat length and design. But for your ARs I reccomend using a full length small base circle die to reload for them for consistency and feeding reliability, and I use the neck sizing method for bolt guns. [/QUOTE]
