One of the indoor ranges I go to used to allow 5.56 on its high power lanes.. Last time I was there, they told me I couldn't fire my AR with 5.56, only with .223. The owner said he had shrapnel come back and hit him in the leg from a 5.56 round, and it barely missed the femoral artery. That's a wakeup call. |

It's not at all clear how or why it happened but it took a little chunk from my shin and bled a bit. The traps were over 20 yards away and seemed well constructed. One of the indoor ranges I go to used to allow 5.56 on its high power lanes. Last time I was there, they told me I couldn't fire my AR with 5.56, only with .223. The owner said he had shrapnel come back and hit him in the leg from a 5.56 round, and it barely missed the femoral artery. That's a wakeup call. The difference between a .223 and a 5.56 NATO is very small. The physical characteristis of the case are slightly different and .223 follows the SAAMI standard where the 5.56 NATO does not. The 5.56 NATO spec requires the neck of the cartridge to be annealed where the .223 doesn't. They are effectively the same cartridge. You can shoot both 5.56 NATO and .223 out of the same chamber/barrel. I have a AR-15 pistol that I had to shoot a couple of hundred rounds of .223 thru before the chamber and bolt would accept a 5.56 NATO headspace go gage. Was someone shooting at the target holder from about 10 yards away? Could happen with any caliber. The difference is actually pretty big. The 5.56 nato runs more powder, as the rifle throat is 1/8” longer allowing the extra powder and maxing pressure at about 58,000 psi. The 223 is designed for 55,000 psi. Shooting 223 in a 5.56 rifle will give less velocity as the pressure does not build as much, because of the throat length. Shooting a 5.56 NATO in a 223 gives excess pressure as the chamber is that 1/8” smaller and you can blow out the primer, etc. so, buy a 5.56 chamber rifle and target shooting, you can shoot anything. |

They are so close that it might happen with .223.* They need to update their back stop - or clean it out. |

FMJ may be the worst. Gas checks can really travel and usually straight back. Two layers of corrugated cardboard usually stops them. I used to collect p[aper boxes and my buddy at the Systems Center (IBM demo shop) used to save me the cardboard that came with a new spool of IBM tape. They went through hundreds of them. It had a black center the size of the hole in the spool and another ring the size of the reel. They make great targets. and a third layer of cardboard. |

I was hit by a ricochet from a 38 one year during annual qualifying in the Air Force. I was sitting on the bench behind the firing line. Don’t know why we qualified that year with pistols as we used the Novato Police range and not the Hamilton AFB range. The bullet must have somehow did a 2 cushion off the steel frames. |
