I'm getting ready to buy a case of ammo to shoot my .223 SP1 and my 5.56 LE6940.
I visited the old you can't shoot 5.56 in .223 but you can shoot .223 in 5.56.
In my research a lot of people personally shot 5.56 in .223 SP1s.  Others think that the the SP1's have 5.56 chambered barrels.  Some gave detailed reports of why you can't shoot 5.56 in .223 but then summed it up with, "I've never heard of anyone blowing up a SP1 shooting 5.56".

So, retro brothers, what's the word?

Colt made SP1's with a 5.56 chamber, no worries.

This. ALL Mini-14's also are 5.56 despite their .223 marking. You are GTG.
