The tweet is comparing the size of the entire 5.56 round to a AA battery, which is misleading. The projectile (bullet), is the only part of the cartridge to exit the barrel. Additionally, AR15s typically use 5.56/.223 rounds which are “22s”. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/5.56%C3%9745mm_NATO

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1812932928093188595
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
