    HOLLIGER ON .223/5.56 CHAMBERS

    "Here are just a few of the chamber reamers that I have prints for. There are hundreds of .223/5.56 chamber dimensions and I always get a kick out of people arguing over whether a rifle has a .223 or a 5.56 chamber. Just because it has a .223 chamber, does not mean it's the same as another rifle with a .223 chamber. Both reamers may say .223 on them, but they may be very much different. Also, everyone just knows the .223 is smaller than the 5.56, well the 5.56 Target chamber is smaller in about every dimension than the .223 Wylde."

    I swear to God biged - if you turn this thread into another one of your ridiculous/irrelevant 223/5.56 debates I'm going to blow a gasket.

    The OP asked a question, and as always no specific throat dimensions are given for a Savage rifle. Instead of blowing a gasket or telling the poster his question is irrelevant why doesn’t someone here at this Savage website get the reamer dimensions and give the actual answer.

    I own a Savage .223 and a AR15 National Match rifle and would also like a definitive answer to this question just like most of the Savage .223 owners would like to know. This is not meant to be insulting, but if you can't get an answer here about a Savage rifle but get plenty of information elsewhere on chamber reamers for the .223 and 5.56 something is wrong.
