The .223 Remington is a small-caliber, high velocity round that has become one of the most well-liked centerfired bullets in the US and can be used in a wide variety of semi-auto and manual action rifles. Norma's 5.56 NATO Ammo is excellent for any shooter and presents a great value.![]()
The 5.56 x45mm NATO round was created from the .223 Remington round. While almost identical in appearance, there are several differences between 5.56mm NATO and .223 Remington cartridges, the main one being that 5.56 x45mm NATO is loaded at a higher pressure than .223 Remington rounds. While 5.56 chambers are designed for the higher pressure, many .223 rounds are not, and therefore, it is not advisable to chamber 5.56 rounds in .223 rifles.
Designed for hunting, sharpshooting, and target shooting, the 5.56 is enjoyable to shoot and offers almost no recoil. Norma's 5.56mm /.223 cartridges offer remarkable value at a great price. OpticsPlanet is pleased to offer this fine product as well as more great rifle cartridges from Norma.
