Never heard that one before. Sort of hard to believe, actually. KAC uses a hammer forged chrome lined barrel. I wouldn't expect it to perform any differently than other similar barrels on the market. I know one former loyal KAC fan that converted to a rabid Larue fan and seemed hell bent on smearing the SR15 at every opportunity. I wouldn't be surprised if it was one of his old threads. Sometimes, you have to consider the source. If you find the thread, send me a link. I'd like to read it.
Hornady tap 75 .223 shouldnt be a problem. A couple of yrs ago I ran 1000 rds thru one of my sr-15s 16" (not mod 1) both suppressed and not with zero problems. Since the beginning of the year I've run close to the same amount of BHA 77 gr .223 thru a KAC 14.5 and an 11.5. No problems. Very smooth.

I own both the KAC and the SCAR, although I love my SCAR, the AR platform will always be my favorite.
The only things i changed out on my KAC was to a Geissele SDE and a BADASS safety, and those were only to keep all my lowers the same.
The KAC safety sold for $50 when I sold it and the trigger $145.
I have never had a mag problem in it.
buy one, you won't be sorry

What didn't you like about the KAC safety? And ya, I agree I love the AR-15 platform, I bought a SCAR 17s but that is because I don't share the same love for the AR-10 platform but that is a whole other topic. Only reason I was considering the SCAR 16s is because I own a 17s, but the more I think about it, the less I want a 16s and the more I want a high end AR.
I prefer the short lever from the BADASS on the right side, I do like to use the right side safety but the KAC is longer and rubs my trigger finger
