Great indoor or basement practice. If you have an AR in .223 you can use a small pistol or small rifle primer to power a .22 pellet.  Shotgun primer works best but one has to modify the case to accept one which isn't hard.  A 209 primer will power a .22 pellet through a 2X4.You used to be able to buy them through Sportsmans Guide, but since I"m flush with a lot of 209 primers and a lathe, I modified the cases myself. One can do it with a hand drill though.</blockquote>
