I've only ever used Norinco 5.56. No issues with it.
If you spent $3000.00 on a black rifle that shoots 223 and I spent $1300.00 you will do all in your power to bash my so called POS. Its semi auto it shoots 223 and 556(as per my Keltec email) just like your $3000.00 guns. It looks cool (FDE). Shot every mag possible including .50 Beowulf mags and LAR Pistol mags. Cant say flawless as every once and a while I get an FTF and stove pipe same as my buddy shooting his XCR. Got a sh.t load of beer money more than the so called elite crowd at the end of the day! IMHLO (in my humble little opinion) love the gun a ton of fun!!!!!
Hey J Ace,
I was deciding between the norinco t97 and the su16fx a little while back, and since I couldn't get my hands on the fx, I just got the su16. That was about 400 or so rounds ago. I'm using a combo of .50 Beowulf mags, standard gi mags and lar-10 mags. I've maybe had a dozen (at the absolute most) FTE and I've only been shooting the American eagle 55grain stuff you can pick up anywhere (canadian tire in a pinch). It's light and I honestly like shooting it. For ####s I did something like the guy (bushcraft?) in the video below did to his, leupold riflemen see through scope rings, it's a cool set up, I dig it.

At 2:30 I think buddy talks about his scope rings, and at 4:40 you get a down barrel view.
Accuracy wise I plan on testing the zero at 50/200 or whatever it's called. Haven't done it yet, but in a couple weeks once I'm done trade school that's the plan.
For me, this is my first 5.56 sooooo it's more of a way to test the waters before I buy a more expensive AR.

The real issue is that Kel tec is more like a $300 rifle but people pay 1000 plus just cause it's NR. Much the same as the Tavor, over priced just because of classification. Nothing against the Tavor.....but a Tavor the Keltec is not. Looks like a cheap plastic toy! My opinion only.
