Check your barrel. Your barrel should be stamped 5.56. The lower can be stamped .223/5.56 but if they changed the upper to a .223, then you are a no-go for 5.56 in a .223 chamber.

Agreed. If its a real Bushmaster barrel it will say 5.56 Nato which means you can shoot either 5.56 or .223. If for some reason it's stamped .223, then DO NOT shoot 5.56 out of it.

My Bushmaster A3/M4 has it stamped on the top of the barrel just behind the flash hider in front of the M203 notch.
