I just found out that the June 2013 issue of Handloader Magazine had an article on loading 5.56. I missed that issue at the Barnes and Noble here. Does anybody have a copy? Can you share any interesting load information?

There is very little mention of .223 in the June Handoader.
The only is a one paragraph comparing .223 cartridges to 5.56 in "Bullets and Brass," and then .223 is mentioned in the "Propellant Profiles" for Varget.

The loading table in that issue is for .40 S&W.

It was the first question in the Bullets & Brass section.



G.M. (guy who wrote in) wanted to know the interchangeability of 223 and 5.56 ammo.




Except for the "mil cases are thicker" nonsense, the answer was correct.




Varget was the subject of Propellant Profiles. With two 223 loads given, firearm not mentioned.




I don't use Varget anyway.
