.223 cartridge (.223rem)
This cartridge is a rifle cartridge, available in both the sports variant and hunting calibers.
So you can use it perfectly on the shooting range during a practice day with your shooting club or during hunting.
They are available in various types on the market, for example: Full metal jacket, Soft points, jacketed hollow points.
They call it a .223 cartridge, the commercial cartridge of the 5.56Nato, but this is not correct, this seems to be the same cartridge!
However, the shape of the cartridge is different, resulting in a greater pressure charge due to the close fit in the chamber upon firing.
So it can do massive damage, to use a 5.56 cartridge in a weapon made for a .223 cartridge.
