223 Wylde chrome moly barrel

Pro: It's far better than no barrel.

Con: It will cost money.

Not sure what info you are looking for. It's a barrel, presumably for an AR15. For all intents and purposes they're all pretty much the same. Can't really give a Pros and Cons without you giving us some useful details. Actually, any details would be good. Chamber cut and barrel material without any other context is pretty useless as far as info goes.
 
The benefit of 223 Wylde lies in the ability to safely and reliable feed BOTH .223 Remington and 5.56x45 NATO (which is typically loaded to a higher pressure and has a fractionally longer case throat)

223 Wylde is considered a "hybrid" chamber designed by Bill Wylde is one of the preferred chambers for match 223 shooting.
 
.223 Wylde is a chamber not a barrel. Simply put it allows you to use the 5.56 round which has a higher PSI than a .223 but gives you the accuracy of a "tighter" .223 chamber. Wikipedia will help you out with the details.
 
And "chrome moly" does not necessary mean chrome-lined. I always feel that manufacturers toss that term around to infer chrome lining.

That's not the case at all. Chromoly is a 41xx series Chromium and Molybdenum Alloy steel. The common alloys are 4130, 4140 and 4150. There is no inference that the barrel is chrome lined.

No, what I meant was that some manufacturers use the term "chrome moly" in a way that I think tries to suggest to customers that it's a synonym for chrome lined.
