These rounds won't fit an M16. I think it is finally time for a 'game changer', I think it is finally imminent, something is going to happen. That is why this was posted, we still don't know who is doing this, and thanks to all the intelligent replies. Maybe it is an altruistic force who is preventing us from arming ourselves in the event of such a transistion. I don't know if I should plug fulford but his posts are getting better. This is some serious stuff. http://src-fla.us/index.php/news2e629/14-sample-data-articles/110 [/quote] :bsflag:>223 and 5.56 mm Nato are the same people.I know. [/quote] They look the same on the outside but are not the same. You can fire .223 from an M16 (they are chambered in 5.56), but the 5.56 has higher pressures. [/quote] We just can't hammer a square peg into a round hole that is too small brother. Too many egos! [/quote]

Minimum and Maximum Tresholds: The contract or contracts for .223 Remington Caliber SD awarded under this solicitation will have a base period of one year, plus four one-year options. The guaranteed minimum of any contract awarded is 10,000 rounds and is applicable to the base year only.
The estimated amount over the 5 year duration of the contract will be 165,000,000 rounds.
165 million round over 5 years = 33 million round/year... or half the consumption of the US army in a war zone (Iraq)... and that is just .223...
And pepper spray..
