Oh look, a dead horse, let's beat it
I just read an overly detailed explanation of 223 vs 5.56.
https://www.americanrifleman.org/ar...-CENSORED--CENSORED--CENSORED--CENSORED-=0918
Summary, dangerous to fire 5.56 in a 223, less accurate to fire 223 in a 5.56.
Does anyone here have any examples or experience with either of these two issues? Has a 223 AR exploded with 5.56 or have the 223 rounds gone off in random directions in a 5.56? (Obviously, if the rounds are not matched to the barrel for weight and twist, there will be a difference in accuracy)
Just curious if there are any interesting stories...
