Yes, you can shoot .223 Remington in a Colt M4, provided that the rifle is chambered for .223. However, it's important to note that many Colt M4 models are chambered for 5.56x45mm NATO, which is compatible with .223 Remington. Always check the specific markings on your firearm to ensure proper caliber use, and consult the manufacturer's guidelines for optimal performance and safety.

Will the ar 15 223 colt shoot 5.56 NATO rounds?
Yes - this is the same ammunition No, it is NOT the same ammunition. The AR-15 has a 5.56x45 chamber, and it will be marked "5.56" on the barrel. Many imported firearms which have a 5.56 chamber will be marked .223 in order to be classed as "sporting rifles" which may be imported. The .223 Remington cartridge may be safely cycled in a 5.56x45 chamber; the 5.56x45 cartridge is not safe to cycle in a dedicated .223 Remington chamber. When it doubt, always check with the manufacturer - they are the most authoritative people to talk to on these matters. The civilian .223 Remington and military 5.56x45 cartridges are similar in dimension, but differ in case thickness, chamber pressures generated, and neck angles. The chamber pressures of the 5.56 greatly exceeds that of the .223 Remington, and the different neck angle can prevent proper headspacing from being achieved in a .223 chamber.
