You’ve probably heard about .223 Wylde, but what is it, what is it good for and should you be taking advantage of it?​

What’s The Deal With .223 Wylde?

The deal is that it is likely more accurate than a 5.56 chambered rifle/carbine, but the degree to which it is more accurate is most likely way above all of our paygrades.

That said, I have a 16" .223 Wylde set up for long distance. I think my Wilson 5.56 is more accurate. Chamber/bore alone isn't going to get you there. Quality of the barrel is as important or importanter. ( yes, I know, but I like that word).

I have a 24” Wilson in .223 Wylde. It’s very accurate with the right load.

Note: the one outside the group was totally my fault. One of them things where you know when the trigger broke it wasn’t going in.
