[QUOTE="MoBoost, post: 2142857, member: 3455"] I guess that's my point in a sense. I was just seeing if there is a clear cut difference between 556 and 223 chambers that is so strongly speculated by some big name publications. My limited firearms knowledge told me that variations in production chambers would grossly overtake any difference in 223 and 556 specifications. It was confirmed by C.I.P. testing, independent testing with strain gauge, and my personal test. There is a chance that US Factory ammo marked 223 is loaded "light" - but published velocities don't support that either. [/QUOTE]
