    Thanks for the help.
    Your speedometer has MPH and KPH on it and 60 MPH is 96.560747 KPH but but are the same speed.

    And .223 Rem is the same as 5,56 is the Metric Conversion of the .223 Rem.

    Please notice below on the left side the black RCBS die box marked .223/5.56x45. Chambers and dies vary in size and none of my dies below are exactly the same "BUT" they are for the same caliber no matter what side of the Atlantic you live on.

    last time Ill ask for help from any of you in here.


    Below is the load data for duplicating military cartridges even if you think someone is a anus orifice. (same size as a metric orifice)
