This subject is more debated then Dukes vs Hellmann’s (Dukes for the win of course 🤣)
When reloading the two, do you separate the two headstamps and load to different specs?
There’s old claims of decreased volume in 5.56 cases due to the supposed extra brass thickness
Pressure difference arguments despite different measuring locations and equipment used for the official specs.
Ran across this vid on the subject
Assuming there was a difference i guess the safe bet would be to load everything to .223 specs and sacrifice a little performance.
What do you guys think or do? This will be for a rainy day stash more so than plinking.
