Yeah I read that too. You still playing it off like you already knew that? So now we have transitioned from you proving Trump was not shot to you claiming a 5.56 and a .223 are the same round. You can claim they are the same round until your hearts content. I don't care if you love being wrong just to argue. Trump was shot in the ear by a 5.56 bullet. **** it up buttercup.

Yep. It was in an article in in Shooting Times a few months ago.
They also covered pistol ammo similarities. If you want to subscribe, the cover of their magazines looks like this:

Here you go dummy. Oh, 3:00 would be a good start for you in the video. While you are watching the video and being schooled you can shove that middle finger right up your *** all the way past that cheap $75 Invicta Pro Diver.

You want me to watch a video that repeats the info that I already told you, and that Slapper also confirmed?
Go read your May 2024 issue of Shooting Times, and get back to me on it.

The Invicta was probably closer to $60, is 10+ years old, and has a Seiko NH35 movement that is accurate to about 3 minutes a month. Not a bad deal at all. Would you like to see my Baume, or my Omega, Longines, classic Casios, Timexes, Wittnauer, and other watches?

So: Identical for all intents and purposes and interoperable, but it can be deadly to do so.

That sounds an awful lot like when I said "A 5.56 is the same a .223, run at higher pressure. So it would cause MORE damage, with other circumstances being the same. You can shoot .223 in a rifle chambered for 5.56, but it's a BAD idea to shoot the 5.56 in a rifle chambered for .223"

Maybe you should consider these subscriptions, too. Don't be so afraid of learning.

At 3:00 he tells you they are similar BUT are NOT the same and explains why. Any other argument you have is now irrelevant to me. I know they are different, have known for many years. You can blow smoke up your own *** and no, I do not care to see any of your knock off watch clones that you bought on Temu.

I don't know why or how the **** it is so hard for a person to understand that they are TWO DIFFERENT ammo's that can be fired from one rifle but should not be fired from the other. If they were the ******* same you could fire either of them from either rifle. I am done with this asinine back and forth about the different bullets.

Trump WAS shot in the ******* ear. DONE.

Rob, make it another topic. I am not entertaining this topic further.

It's hard for you to understand simply because you are not very bright.

To repeat myself yet again (underline for emphasis): "A 5.56 is the same a .223, run at higher pressure. So it would cause MORE damage, with other circumstances being the same. You can shoot .223 in a rifle chambered for 5.56, but it's a BAD idea to shoot the 5.56 in a rifle chambered for .223"

Let me ask you this: Which bullet makes a bigger hole passing through paper at 3,000 FPS: One with a diameter of .223", or one with a diameter of .223"?

So, Trump is our next president. I wonder if there will be increases in SS payments.

Every year.
And in 2025 they should see additional changes due a Biden bill that caps prescription costs for Medicare recipes, and gives some people increases beyond COLA.

Trump should be able to improve upon it then.

Listen, I am off to bed but I will humor you and give you something to ponder.

Should you shoot a 5.56 through a rifle chambered for .223? The answer is no because the pressure difference can be dangerous. So what do you need? You need a DIFFERENT cartridge. You would need a .223 to safely shoot that rifle chambered in .223. Goodnight Rob.

A 5.56 cartridge loaded for .223 pressures will work fine in a .223 rifle all day long.
Load that 5.56 for pressures above the safe range for .223 (~55k psi), and you risk your LIFE (remember? He said it in the video your offered to try and prove me wrong).

So, which .223" bullet makes a bigger hole in paper, traveling at 3,000FPS: The one fired from a .223 cartridge, or one fired from a 5.56 cartridge?
