is this not correct?
Actually, it is the other way around. The 5.56 NATO chamber is cut with a bit more freebore than the 223REM. So you can shoot 223REM in a 5.56 NATO chamber but it is not a good idea to shoot 5.56 NATO in a 223REM chamber.

Hey 320... I didn't even recognize the comment until I looked back and saw it was you. I've been following the .25/223 saga for a while, and liking the looks of it. Thanks for posting here as well as on quarterbore. Will be keeping tabs of updates. Really appreciate you signing up here and offering up info as well!
