I have a couple of 5.56mm ARs that have Wylde chambers. Excellent rifles, especially the Rock River 20".

I heard from a friend today that said he was looking around the web and found reference to a "Wylde bolt"... has anyone ever heard of a bolt for Wylde chamber that's any different from any other AR .223/5.56 bolt? I have not yet seen that reference web page myself, so have no further information. Far as I know, a 5.56 bolt is a 5.56 bolt and they should all be the same. I have taken a standard BCG and run it in a rifle with a Wylde chamber with no problem.

Comments?

Thanks a lot. This subject is simply one I've never thought of or considered!
 
Nope. Case head and rim is the same on all of them as far as I have ever heard. The chambering for wylde is only very very slightly different.
