I did alot of research, and I ended up buying a Rock River. I just got it, so I have not shot it yet. I found it to be the best value. If you are going to buy any ammo or components for the 223, then you better get them quick. Supplies are drying up, and prices are going up. Tom.

I got a Colt, in .223. My next AR will be a DPMS in .243.

This is BloodbrotherBob a buddy on another Forum and the Rifle he put together.

It is 99% DPMS Panther Arms AR-15 / 223Rem using 55gr standard soft point bullets. It has a Barska 3x9x42mm scope with illuminated recticle and 500 yard bullet drop compensator. The stock is from a colt. It has alot of attitude packed in it as well!

Mine was estimated at 260#
Standard 55gr softpoint which busted his rib on the way in and lodged in the hyde on the far side, it mushroomed nicely.

I kinda think everyone's FIRSTblack rifleshould be a .223. Then add other calibers if you like later.
