“Yeh — after a full day of whining to the contrary of what you finally found.”
You are an ABSOLUTE LIAR.
Stop it.
In less than an hour since I saw that post I had posted the info that I found directly from the Bushmaster site. I found in an indirect way as I was looking at Gun sites talking about ammo .
Quite your lying.
I am really hacked off at the way Uncle Chip continues to lie about posts.
He is VERY VERY suspicious.
At 10:16:31 I asked this question
“So now lets get to the gun . Any actual gun experts out there on the
Bushmaster .223 caliber model XM15-E2S
Are they ALL equipped to handle a 5.56 . Can you jungle tape 5.56 in a Bushmaster and not have it jam up due to pressure.

ATK, the parent company of ammunition manufacturers Federal Cartridge Company and Speer, published a bulletin entitled The Difference Between 223 Rem and 5.56 Military Cartridges. In this bulletin, ATK stated using 5.56 ammo in a .223 rifle could result in primer pocket gas leaks, blown cartridge case heads, and gun functioning issues.

Then this
However, ATK dropped this bomb in the bulletin on the .223/5.56:
It is our understanding that commercially available AR15s and M16s although some are stamped 5.56 Rem on the receiver are manufactured with .223 chambers.
So, even if your AR is stamped 5.56, is it really? Check your owners manual or call the company directly and make sure you get an answer you feel comfortable with.

Then this
All Bushmaster rifles are chambered to accept 5.56mm ammunition and always have been. The NATO Spec 5.56mm chambers have a longer leade or throat than the SAAMI Spec .223 caliber chambers which have about half of the leade or throat of the 5.56mm chambering. While it is safe to fire both 5.56mm and .223 caliber ammunition in our rifles, the 5.56mm ammunition should not be fired in rifles chambered in .223 caliber as they will develop very high pressures.

So , did Vance say if .223 or 5.56 casings were on the scene
