The effective range of a .223 Remington bullet typically ranges from 300 to 600 yards for target shooting and hunting, depending on the specific firearm and bullet type. For military applications, the range can extend up to about 800 to 1,000 yards. However, factors like wind, bullet weight, and barrel length can influence accuracy and performance at longer distances.

What is difference between a 223 caliber bullet and a 45 bullet?

Caliber refers to the diameter of a bullet (bullet is the part of a cartridge that is fired out of the gun). A .223 caliber bullet is .223 inches across. It is normally used as a rifle cartridge. a .45 caliber bullet is more than twice as wide as a .223, and is usually used in pistols. The .223 is lighter- it weighs about 1/4 of a .45 bullet, and they are different shapes- .223 is usually pointed, the .45 is rounded.

Is a 9mm bullet more accurate then 223 caliber bullet?

Generally, a bullet's caliber has NOTHING to do with its accuracy. So your question cannot be answered. However, a 9mm is usually a handgun round, used at close range (0-15meters). A .223 is typically used at longer ranges, but could be used close-up as well. At distances greater than 20 meters, up to 500 meters, the .223 will be more accurate, if the weapon is dialed-in.
