Well saying it’s hotter is just misinformation that wasn’t necessary to add then.
I did not expect that response when I saw a notification. I’m so used to the old place where dropping insightfull info is met with arguments.
😀
This isn’t true. Both 5.56 and .223 can be loaded to a variety of pressure specs. 5.56 being hotter is fudd lore due to it being the military spec.
The difference between the two comes down to how the neck of the cartridge is measured. The the 5.56 is rated to withstand a certain pressure…it does not mean it is always loaded to a higher pressure.
The reason you don’t want to shoot 5.56 in a .223 is because the cartridge neck doesn’t fit the chamber properly and the resulting incorrect headspace is what can cause a catastrophic failure …again it’s not due to the round being hotter.
Right? OP paid attention in math class but not in English.
7.62 NATO isn’t the same thing as 30-06. 7.62 NATO refers to a specific cartridge, not the bullet projectile itself. It’s the same as .308 Winchester. 7.62x51mm.
30-06 is 7.62x63mm
Because it actually fits on a shelf, it’s way quieter, and can be thrown in a backpack if you want to take it places.
Those are the things I miss after upgrading from the S to the X.
Also “why not get an X and not use disks”… Well why pay double if you don’t need to use disks? The performance difference isn’t huge except on a few games made to utilize the X.
