Best Answer

Minimum range would be the end of the barrel. Maximum effective range for a M-16 firing the dimensionally similar 5.56x45 is listed as 550 metres at a point target, and 800 at an area target. For a rifle firing commercial .223 Remington ammunition, you could expect the results to be similar.
