It's designed and chambered for. 223 Remington. Some of the militarised models may have a 5.56x45 chamber more ideal for 5.56 ammo than the "standard" models (like the Mini 14 Ranch). There were also models chambered in .222 Remington, for export to countries which prohibited civilian ownership of firearms chambered in military calibres, though these are a bit rare.
