In addition to the excellent info already given when the .223 remington was created (1957) there was no 5.56mm round. In 1980, the .223 Remington was transformed into a new cartridge, a 62-gr full metal jacket bullet with a 7-gr steel core for better penetration and designated 5.56×45mm NATO (SS109 or M855). That's why on some old rifles like Colt ar15, it say 223 but is acceptable to fire 556. Or so I've been told.
