Sounds like bs .223 is a respected varmint/small game round.
Another interesting rumor on the subject is that .223 is not compatible with, 5.56 it's military designation or close cousin supposedly.
I put at least 200 rounds through my mini14, it did not blow up or jam more, the info I got was from wikipedia which I do not trust.
But a gun store clerk warned me about the ammo, I promptly ignored him in childish ignorance but he seemed to be wrong anyway.
It was ancient bulk ball ammo so maybe new stuff is different, also I am aware of many "different" kinds of 5.56 rounds ap, incendiary, tracers.
hmm ArmaLite says the same thing about it being close, sound cool to me though.
