I picked up a few month back a Bushmaster 223/556 .
It is all done up with all the after market goodies right down to a E-otech scope.

The 223 is a cheaper caliber to shoot and there is is a lot of companys making ammo for it.

I'm still up in the air on how i like the caliber, but i like the AR based system this is built on.

Your right on the speed of the 220 Swift as far as it being hard on barrels. But most people will never shoot one enough to ware a barrel out.

I used to shoot combat with a 9mm Baretta that i used 115 grain bullits in. I have a honest 30,000 rounds threw that barrel.

I really did ! I load my own and ran non jacked bullits trying to add life to the barrel.

It still shoots great but better when it is dirty " i wonder why " ...

I was shooting about 300 to 500 rounds a week and had it down to a cost of $4.50 a box of 50 with Winchester 231 powder.

I have a friend that has private range built on his farm so we shoot often. It's nice having a friend who has the room and space to build a first class set up .
Sunday afternoons with beer and guns !!!!

Isn't America great.
