Jumping in on a Retro build. I am looking at a Double Star 16" light barrel. One site states .223 and another states 5.56 Nato. Anyone known what it really is? Thanks

Unless JT/Doublestar has changed contractors; their barrels are made by ER. Shaw:

Good quality barrel, accurate and 1:9 twist. Highly recommend.
