223 is a light low recoil weapon. at medium ranges under 500 yards, it is fairly accurate. I don't know what the ranges here are, but with .223 you want to be closer than 800 definitely, or you have to go to 7MM magnum and heavier cartirdge. The big iron is high blast, and revealing. 223 is standard military calibre of US army M16 and now nato weapons as well. It is fairly easy to get in sporting rifles as well.
