What rifles are 5.56?

[F22_RaptoR]

I always took care to shoot only .223 in mine! So a 5.56 chamber would be found on every Ranch rifle, even the previous generation?

If possible I'd check it with a headspace gauge before. Most Euro guns are made for the full pressure 5.56, and they headspace it properly for both - some American made bolt guns have the differently headspaced .223

I would say MOST auto-loaders are usually going to fire 5.56 BUT it's always good to check it with a headspace gauge if it's marked .223

Missed the NR part.

Caveat on the Mossberg MVP. It didn't like 5.56. They were difficult to eject and all over the paper. 5.56 did work though. Just not well. I thought it was rifle but .223 cycled great. Bolt was pretty smooth with .223.

But the T97 seems to prefer the 5.56. At least for me ...

Any one know the truth on these rifles?
