    223 "crossover" thoughts and options

    I have a problem - too many 223s. I have a heavy Rem 700 with a 1:8 twist light parma weight Keiger barrel. Shoots great but too heavy. I have a CZ 527 with 1:12 barrel, shoots great but only for 3 or so rounds, is very light and a delight to carry, but not so easy to shoot for those out there shots that need a very steady position.

    I got a Sako 75 223 for a cobber, they are a good bit heavier than a CZ but less than a "varmint" barrel.

    I reckon I need to replace both my current 223s with a "cross-over" configuration something like what Litggow has done with their LA101 22 and LA102 centrefires (yes they do a 223 but they are long action based).

    Anybody running a 223 like this, are there any factory options out there?? Thoughts??
