[QUOTE="CAR-AR-M16, post: 1760244, member: 204"] Actually, SAAMI (Sporting Arms and Ammuntion Manufacturers Institute) considers 5.56mm ammo in a .223 Rem chamber to be an un-safe combination (see page 7 in this link: [URL]http://www.saami.org/specifications_and_information/publications/download/SAAMI_ITEM_211-Unsafe_Arms_and_Ammunition_Combinations.pdf[/URL]). That is all the reason I need. I know several folks will jump in and say they have been shooting 5.56 in .223 chambers for years without any problems, but that doesn't mean it is safe. I know a lot of folks who speed, run stop signs/lights and text while driving and nothing has happened to them yet, but that doesn't mean that is safe either. [/QUOTE]
