It is a standard cartridge for NATO forces, and for several nations not part of NATO. It is derived from, but not entirely interchangeable with, the .223 Remington cartridge. This is due to, among other things, the greater gas pressure of the 5.56 mm military round.
- Several 5.56 weapons are seen in the Rambo film series.
- The 5.56x45mm cartridge is a caliber used by the Galil, FAMAS, M4A1, AUG (excluding Counter-Strike: Source), SG 552, SG 550, M249, Galil AR, M4A4, M4A1-S, SG 553, and the Negev in the Counter-Strike series.
