As far as 5.56/.223 being different in overall length. I think you are right, i think i read somewhere too that a 223 can chamber in a 5.56 weapon, but 5.56 wont chamber in a .223 bolt action.

You're correct.  If you look at the barrel it will either say .223 or in the case of mine it says 5.56/.223
