As noted in discussion in the issue and on discord, |
the issue with this approach is that it does not follow other metric bullet names which uses |
Thing is also that both of these are bullet sizes, so the consistency is already broken (and kinda has to be broken if we want the item to be at all easy to tell apart from the other 5.56mm ammo, because it being the US-unit variant is literally the distinguishing factor). |
But the point is that
but the point of the PR is to not make it easy to tell apart from other 5.56mm ammo, because it is the 5.56mm ammo. copied from added rationale in #2690:

I suppose this does work too. Plus since this is a case where the ammo (minor differences in specifications aside) is well-known by two names, US or metric, depending on context, then I suppose it doesn't matter. Technically for most purposes the order of the names doesn't matter either I suppose, since searching for 5.56 will return all such results, but it will throw off results when you have a pile of ammo sorted alphabetically. |

Completely agree with the OP, it adds to the confusion when crafting and also more items, and searching. Very small benefit in keeping them for the gun enthusiasts when compared to the negatives - bloat it adds. |

as well, but that'd cause issues with previous saves. also id migration is undocumented.5.56mm
where appliable, as iirc cata only has one variant of 5.56mm wheras 7.62mm has multiple (7.62x39mm(soviet), 7.62x51mm(NATO), 7.62x63mm(30-06 springfield)Testing
loaded without problems.
all 5.56 / .223 calibre bullets can be searched at once.
ammunition type is displayed as "5.56x45mm".
