Norinco 5.56 1120 Round Spam Can Deal

[easysauce]

I think the Norinco stuff is in all calibers fairly mild stuff? With the 45 acp one member chronyed it at 800 fps. Where U.S. stuff is 900 fps+?? With the .308/ 7.62x51 I just shoot it out of my M 14's and my Ruger American .308 When I get my Norinco M4 I'm just going to shoot and not worry. With any of my bolt action guns if you can open the bolt after firing and primers aren't popped you are good to go. And of course a bolt gun is the strongest action. So OLd Milyummy I would order and enjoy. The Norinco .308 with the Ruger American with a hot barrel is 3 in. at 100 meters and 12 in. at 318 yds. So I would think the .223 will be the same??

the norc .45 i have is hotter then my rem .45, and the norc 5.56 is hotter then my AE/rem .223,

im pretty sure it wont be in issue since 99% of .223 chambers are wylde or the equivalent, but yeah, just FYI

I have/do shoot 5.56 in a .223 bolt action rifle.

If you want shoot a 5.56 stuff in bolt action, buy a 5.56 bolt action.

thanks. Getting excited

You can do whatever you want. There's a good thread in the black rifle section going over 5.56/.223 feel free to read it, I personally have no issues with 5.56 in .223, if you don't want to do it, that's fine with me.

Here's the link, I stopped deciding for people whether or not it's safe to do so, I feel they should educate themselves on the matter and draw the conclusion on their own. Your opinion on it is yours and if it makes you feel safe I'm not going to tell you otherwise, but now your telling me otherwise and I've done all the reading on the matter and drew the decision for myself, I'm quite happy with it.

(This norc ammo is for my AR15, I reload for my bolt gun. But that doesn't mean I havn't shot 5.56 in it and feel comfortable doing so)

I do it, but that doesn't mean you have to. Stay safe guys and happy shooting.

if there is only 5.56mm, without NATO, would it be safe to shoot 5.56nato rounds?

5.56, 5.56x45, 5.56 nato = same

Just read this... especially section 4.

Now there's incentive for the CanAm shipping department. Every other customer just got moved to the bottom of the list, lmao.

 

[Armourall]

Mine arrived today (in Ontario) and wasn't marked Can-am - but the Canpar guy knew what was in it. He was cool about it though.

Just got my Norinco M4 14.5 in. barrel today. Nice gun. I hope it shoots as well as all the reviews? In the manual it says it is a true 5.56 and cartridges used are SS109, M193,M855S which are Nato referances. Thanks for the pictures of the opened spam cans fred0000. Anyways I have both the yellow box stuff and 3 crates of the white box ammo. At least buy the packaging quite differant so has anyone done a comparison as to differances on empty case ejection? accuaracy? How their gun cycles? recoil or muzzle blast?? Or has anyone pulled bullets to weigh powder charge between the two? Does the powder look similiar?? Or has anyone chronyed them?? Or is their any differances in the weights of the 2 differant unfired bullets??

Guys, which one is better MFS or Norinco?

Better here means cleaner and more reliable.
