.224 Bullets

[Doug in Alaska]

I have a large supply of Winchester bullets I bought years ago with the intent of loading them for my AR15. I've never reloaded for this rifle because I have plenty factory rounds for it. The bullet packages read:

Winchester 223 Rem
55 GR PSP
Component Bullet

Is there any reason I can't reload these bullets for my .22-250AI? My reloading data shows bullets for both to be .224. I guess the info on the bullet packages has me wondering why it specifies 223 Rem.

Thanks

I reload the 223 and 22-250 and some 22 hornets all with the same bullets there is no difference between them.I have loaded them to 3640 fps in the 22-250 rem.gun)

Thanks guys, I guess the wording on the packages just seemed a little odd to me.
