[QUOTE="Buster Hemlock, post: 2145279, member: 109327"] I have a 223 PSS LTR. It still has the factory barrel but is definitely showing signs of needing to be replaced. I'll be going with a 8 twist 223 or 223AI when I do. Also mine has shot well with 70 grain and below bullets with some load development but every barrel is different. Based on what you said, wanting to shoot bullets in the 70ish grain weight and shoot 223 and 556, the wylde would be the way to go. If you handload you will be able to get as much accuracy out of the wylde as a regular 223 but be able to run 556 ammo too. The Wylde has a Hybrid throat/freebore design that allows the higher pressure of the 556 to run safely but still get good accuracy out of 223 [/QUOTE]
