Well I understand that part already, but my question is why would I want to shoot 5.56 if it's more expensive? What's the advantage of it over the .223? Like I said, assuming my rifles are...

hahahaha I call BS. Any AR can shoot a good quality .223 round.
To answer the previous question. There isn't anything superior about a 5.56 round.
The only reasons to purchase a 5.56 over a .223...

Hate to sound like a noob, but what's the advantage of shooting something like this (5.56) compared to .223, assuming barrel is chambered to 5.56 of course?

223 is a cheaper round. A gun chambered for 5.56 will fire a 223, but not vise versa

In most cases you might not (i.e. practice etc), but at this price even on back order it ends up cheaper than even most .223's I've priced. So...superior round for less $$?

Did it change to Preferred Notify? That's normal.
Mine is still a backorder (ordered Feb8), but I think that's because I keep messing with the order quantity.
