Howdy Again My Friends-
I'm a bit confused about the caliber designation of the most popular so-
called "evil black rifles". In other words, what is the difference in caliber
designation between .223 Rem and 5.56 NATO. And, can rifles chambered
for one actually fire the other? For instance, can my 16" barrel COLT Match
Target Competition weapon (which is designated as a true .223) fire all
cartridges with the headstamp designation of 5.56mm? Is it in any way
harmful too do such? Many thanks in advance for the expert advice
that we tend to get from our THR membership~!
