5.56 vs 2.23

[3GunFunShooter]

Get a Wylde chamber, best of both.

Why have a forum where people can ask questions then?

I guess you dont feel that your opinion (if you have one) or knowledge of a given subject (if you have any) is valued by others.

To the OP: Also research head spacing to get some further understanding. As said before, its safe to shoot .223 in a 5.56 chamber but not necessarily the other way around (well, you can get away with it but its not advised). Most ARs are chambered for 5.56 so you will be fine using either cartridge. Watch out for some specific predator hunting guns though that are chambered for .223. A Wylde chamber is a good way to go as mentioned earlier.

Why have a search function?

Yes, we were all newbies at one point. I myself just got into firearms not even half a year ago. I also had this same exact question the OP posted, but instead of posting a new thread did a quick search on google.

It's understandable if certain topics aren't discussed much but this particular question is asked ALL THE TIME.

You would be surprised to know how many people out there just don't get the fact that all of the information is on the internet through search engines.. I have dissected search engines for hours on end to find the answers i need, most people (are lazy) just ask people that search instead of searching for the answers themselves.

Nobody is talking **** here, hell I even searched it for you!

Word of advice, checking for answers on google will always be faster than posting the question on a forum waiting for people to reply. More often than not your question has been asked before.

The 5.56 has increased pressure load, and is loaded to military specifications.

The .223 is a civilian cartridge, for small and medium game hunting, and bigger (depending on bullet and cartridge type). 223 ammo will fire in 5.56 firearms, but 5.56 should not be fired in .223 only firearms, otherwise you risk a kB! or worse.

If the information is already available out there, than why have a discussion forum such as this one?

Oh yeah, thats why...
