I have a Diamondback DB-15 with a 16 inch barrel and 1:8 twist. I guess I need to fire a few rounds and see how the .223's run.

1-8 is the sweet spot in barrel twist and it should be hand sized if not better. My 18in heavy barrel 1-8 stacks 62 grain fusion on top of each other and they are deadly on deer and hogs up to 150yrd verified.
