[QUOTE="amaziah, post: 357876, member: 23140"] Keep in mind that cheap .223 ammo is cheap ammo. If you want maximum accuracy at long range you definitely are not going to be shooting the surplus ammo. In the .223 for long range using 80 gr. bullets are usually seated long so they are fed 1 at a time. Not a problem for a bolt gun but in an ar15 it sux. If you are going to limit yourself to these 2 calibers then the .22-250 is more robust. the .223 is cheap and effective range is usually around 300 yards. [/QUOTE]
