[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1723625, member: 2736"] If the pressures are held to SAMMI spec. they can be shot in the AR platform without trouble. If the pressures are higher, a bolt action is needed/Recommended. If you use the Lapua cases they are stronger and pressure signs are slow to show up. but excessive pressure is possible because the Lapua cases normally have less case volume than other cases except for the Mil Spec cases The loads/velocities I listed are within SAMMI pressures and should be adhered to. Most 223 AI loads are hand loaded and therefore on the high pressure side because they are normally custom bolt rifles and some liberties with pressure can be taken (But not to much). So if someone want's to over load his rifle/cartridge, he is the one that has to live with the effects. Most of the available load data for the 223 and the 223 AI are based on 24" barrels and the velocities are elevated from a 20 Inch barrel. So if these loads are used in 20" barrels, the velocity loss should be very close. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
