There are very few true .223 caliber AR's out there as well - mostly purpose built target rifles. Most off the shelf AR's are chambered in .223 Wylde, which will handle 5.56 and .223.

My DMR-type upper will be Wylde. No need to worry about ammo then, though I don't load to max pressures anyway.

Thanks for posting this! I always knew there was a slight difference but I really wasnt sure what. Makes me feel good knowing that all my competition rounds are reloaded from expended brass on the military range
