I'm still new to .223 rifles so bear with me lol.
I have a bolt action (700 SPS Varmint) in .223. As I understand it 5.56 is loaded to slightly higher pressures then standard .223.
Does anyone know just how much higher the pressure is and if there are any other differences? I plan on trying to get what the model is rated for of course, but don't know what 5.56 is loaded to so that I can compare.
