Get a 5.56 barrel if youre gonna go with the standard .223 build. Knowing that my AR will eat any .223 round I put into it is comfortable.

Also I agree with BigHoss. Save money on the LPK and stripped lower. I got a CMMG lpk, $55 off gunbroker. Included everything I needed except the buffer and stock.
