.223

So, what's everybody's favorite? Started looking at some last night, and posted reviews are all over the place. One consistent factor - use lots of lube (which I do). Also, since I use a full length sizer to size and deprime, do I need to get the set, or just the FL sizer/decapper? These are...

I have a .223 Savage and want to shoot 5.56 in it. I have some 5.56 M-855 with green tip, 62 grains. With this round in chamber, I have .160" freebore. Sounds like plenty to me, but what do you chamber guys say about it? Do I have enuf freebore to be safe? Thanks, Pete

Got a .223 Savage and am gonna get it cut and threaded to run my 30 cal suppressor on. Any recommendations as to the length to cut to? I am thinking 17" 'cuz won't be too long with can on. Thanks, Pete

Why are not all rifles accepting these 2 rounds not in Wylde chambering? Is the .223 inherently more accurate in it's own chambering and same for 5.56? Think if I were a manufacturer, I would want my rifle as versatile as possible, hence the Wylde chamber. Ruger does a lot of theirs like this if...

Anyone sell (beside box box stores) factory loaded .233/5.56 ammo in the metro Jackson area that doesn't require a bank loan or selling a body part??

Anyone bought and used the monarch 100 rd pack that Academy is selling? It's steel ammo. Dirty? Bad for the rifle??? Opinions are welcomed!

If I need special mags I need to start hunting them down. Thanks

Well, as of yesterday I ordered my first T/C Contender frame. I got it for a steal on gunbroker, but now I need to figure out what I want to do barrel-wise and could use some help. I was just going to order the .223 Super-14 barrel made by T/C as my first barrel, but then I found out that the...

I been browsing the pawn shops looking for an AR .223 one pawnshop offers 12 months same as cash type deal walk out with ya gun and pay as you go. Now my question is what names should i look for on the lower end of the spectrum for a modable ar. I found one and the name slips my mind now but it...

So hey guys, witch one of you is buying up all the .223 ammo? On a failed attempt to find a Wingmaster Saturday morning, I also hit the big name stores and get a few boxes of ammo. I stay in Rankin county and visited Dick's, Academy, and the pearl walmart. The shelves have been cleared out, is...
