No real difference in accuracy between the two cartridges.
^^^^this^^^^^ but I would add if your ever going to shoot longer distances 500yds+ the 308 would be better on many levels . Most of witch is wind deflection . At longer ranges the wind will push the 223 all over the place .

I would also add if you get the 223 make sure the twist rate is 1-9 and not 1-12 .

IMO the 1-9 will handle the heavier bullets that you will find in match ammo and still shoot the lighter cheap stuff as well .
