Honestly, if I didn't already have a 223 in the Hawkeye, I'd buy it in the RAR. Or, I might get another Tikka as my 223 rifle. Or maybe I'd buy the RAR and tell everyone I got the Tikka just to fire up 2muchmucous.

I used to think that there was NO reason to ever want a 223, but then I bought one. And now it gets shot more than anything else that I have.
