Hello guys & gals,
From what I understand, the thickness of the cases is what makes the pressure difference between .223 & 5.56.
So my question is, excuse my ignorance, say I bought some .223, shot those rounds, then loaded to "5.56 specs"... Would that be a bad idea? Would that be too much pressure for the thinner cases or something?
What about the other way around? Say I bought some m855, shot those rounds, then wanted to load to ".223 specs." Would that create too weak of a cartridge or something?
Thanks in advance for the responses,
Bull.
