    More about the new 7mm fed back country

    Nearly put this in the reloading but it's not really about that.
    Main point is about the nato 556 ammo.
    Spoiler alert, it tells you why you can't just use these this new steel in all cases (also tells you where it comes from), but does also says why it can be used in 556 with very good results

    Would love to go to America and vacuum up all those "obsolete' 223 range cases. LOL.

    It would be quite cool to have a 223 that performs like a 22-250.
    Fast twist barrel with heavier pills in a light rifle.
    Wonder if the same thing applies to the 762?
