After more than 25 years of Air Force experience, I don’t want another .223 in my hands.

I think he ordered his chambered for 7.62mm. But, I can tell you that his new rifle will be sturdy and very easy to field strip and clean. I wish I had one for private use, or if they allowed me to bring one to Iraq, I would love to have one chambered for 7.62mm NATO even without the "burst" option (I only use the Semi function on my M16 or M4 anyways).

I love my 223. If I need something stronger that's what a bolt action 30-06 is made for.
