Sweet. We have a gun show coming up the first of the month.I'm trying to save a few bucks. It never works out that way though.

I'm a little confused by your photo. A .223 rifle but 6.8 ammo. I'm assuming you just happen to pick both up from the show and not a screw up.

or it could have a 6.8 upper and not .223 im pretty sure there isnt a dedicated lower like an ar-10 but i really dont know forsure. please post up some specs and i cant wait to hear how she shoots. i like the look of the a2 stock on an m4 profile.

Yes, it is a 6.8 upper on a .223 bushy lower and the good bolt carrier. Yeah, I also like the look of a M4 upper with the a2 but I have an old a1 around here some where and I will probably go with that. The a1 is 5/8" shorter and I like that.

BUSHMASTER !!!!

I think the last lower I bought from them said : "Multi-Caliber"

It just makes them easier to sell, The market was full of lowers marked 6.8 Etc a while back, And they didn't seem to be moving as well.....So now they mark them "Mostly" either "CAL-MULTI" and "CAL .223-5.56mm"

They probably still mark them 6.8 if that's what you want/order, Or if the completed rifle came in that caliber.....Otherwise No Differences.
