Probably a silly question, but since I'm still learning, I passed on buying some yesterday until I checked with us THR-ers.
I know there's a physical length difference in the bullet so that's one point, and (while probably) no difference in the case length - I want to be sure (2nd point) there's no problem.
My thought was maybe to use the varmint round in urban situations if need be - is this rational?
While we're at it, my regular gun shop seems to be having trouble getting, not only Q3131A (Isreali Mfr 5.56), but also Win Q3131 white box .223 55g. So, they've really loaded up on Wolf .223 in FMJ and hollow point. I know there's pro and con on Wolf ammo - not a factor in this post - but I'm asking if anyone here has used the Wolf .223 hollow point in AR-15 (mine w/Stainless Steel barrel) and what do you use it for - plinking, practice, or serious stuff?
All input appreciated.
