the m16 uses 5.56 caliber ammo
its not the rifle that makes the difference its the ammo an armor piercing round would

Enlist! What better way to get free ammo and GET PAID to shoot your M16!
The M16 and the Garand are two completely different firearms. The are made of different materials, work differently, and use different ammo. Please research, reword, and repost your question, or contact me through my message board.
The M16 assault rifle is chambered for the 5.56x45mm NATOintermediate rifle cartridge. It can also accept .223 Remington rounds.
