The 223 WSSM uses a centerfire rifle cartridge based on the 404 Jeffery cartridge case, shortening and necking down to twenty-two caliber and sharpening the shoulder angle to 28 degrees the 223 WSSM cartridge gets a definite boost in case capacity.

The 223 WSSM cartridge achieves great performance at the factory level, similar to the .22″ caliber super performance.

The 223 WSSM factory loadings show a velocity of 3,850 feet per second for a 55 grain bullet while this is only slightly more than the Remington 22-250 which shows a velocity of 3,680 feet per second, barrel life for the two rounds will not be the same, as the 223 WSSM chamberings in Browning and Winchester rifles have chrome bores to slow throat erosion, therefore the 223 WSSM will have an extended barrel life beyond that of the 22-250.
