.223 Wylde and a load of malarkey?

[12Bravo20]

I had a early 1990's NEF handi rifle in .223 Rem.
As like above stated by HereOnly, I was purchasing commercial 5.56 reloads at the LGS.
I exlerenced extraction issues and bulged primers with 5.56 reloads in that singleshot.
Accuracy was not that wonderfull as I recall.

I had a Handi-Rifle in 223 made in the mid 2000's. The couple of times I shot 5.56 ammo in my rifle, the action popped open. And yes I made sure the breach face was oil free too. 5.56 ammo was definitely too hot for the 223 chamber on my Handi-Rifle.
