Theoretical Pros which will have such a minute effect on accuracy compared to the 100's of other variables I doubt any one of us would be able to tell the difference. It is supposed to have some extra relief in the case body to help with extraction. I have a 223 wylde and have never had problems from it. Works great. I've also never had problems with the 556 chamber. I would certainly be fine with either chamber. It's way down low on the list of reasons why I would or would not buy a particular barrel. Either one is GTG IMHO

Thanks for the reply, what rounds do you typically shoot out of it and how's the performance?

I'm looking at an upper psa has on sale to go with my spikes lower. It's a 1/7 twist. Am I right in assuming I can just put it on my lower and shoot 55 fr 556 out of it?

.223 Wylde is an attempt at finding a balance between accuracy and pressure in .223 and 5.56. I have some Wylde barrels that shoot excellent.

More important than what chamber you get is who cut it. Buy from a company that has a reputation for high quality control, not one that has a reputation for reducing manufacturing cost. When corners start getting cut the tolerances on chambers start to get bigger.
