What is a 5.56 plus 45mm NATO?

5.56mm x 45mm (5.56 is the diameter of the buller, 45mm is the length of the brass casing). NATO implies that this is THE 5.56mm round used by NATO forces. Similar to 7.62mm x 51mm NATO is the standard .30 caliber round use by NATO forces.

What is the difference between the .223 and 5.56 NATO round?

The 5.56 NATO round is a tad longer, about 0.4mm longer; but that has nothing to do with why you shouldn't intercnahge them. You shouldn't mix them because a 5.56 NATO chamber has a longer leade (cartrige mouth to rifleing engagement), a .223 chamber has a shorter leade. Shooting .223 out of a 5.56 chamber will not lead to any problems other than less-than-stellar acuracy, however, usind 5.56 in a .223 chamber WILL lead to premature wear out of the chamber and parts.
