i have some 55 fmj 223 rounds and i have some lack city Xm193 55 gr 5.56 ammo.
how different are these balistically? i mean will i be able to tell a difference at 100 yards? 200? is the difference enough to go with one or the other? |

There is a wealth of information in the ammunition forum under the "Ammunition Review and Reference" link.
That's a good place to start. Nothing can substitute testing and validation with your individual weapon though. EDIT: And P.S. - you didn't define the mission. Home defense? Hunting? That will make a difference too. |
| non issue. Just shoot either. The only problem would be your barrel chamber size but unless you have an old 223 chambered barrel you will be fine. Shoot it and count your clicks to correct your bullet placement and then adjust according to the ammo you are shooting. |
