I'm looking to reload some 5.56 and looking for a simple cliff notes if you will of the differences between loading 5.56 and .223
Lets say there both 55gr FMJBT and using Hodgdon H335 powder.
Now I believe there is a difference in the thickness of the brass if not mistaken? But beyond that I am unable to find 5.56 data as far as powder loads, etc..... There is .223 info but thats .223 unless there exactly the same.
So what makes a 5.56 a 5.56, over just another .223?
Thanks for the help,
Eric
