The 223 AI is awesome. Way underrated what this little guy can do, and you can shoot regular 223 in it because it headspaces on the base of the neck.

Ackley chambers are made just a little tight at bolt closure so they shoot standard ammo the same. Some of my best groups have been with 223 ammo. I liked it so much I had my 223 rechambered with the same reamer to match.
