Yes, all of my other brass, thousands of pieces, gets resized in small base RCBS dies as well as standard Redding dies and is trimmed on the Giraud each time it's resized. About 75% of the brass is long enough to engage the cutting blade after resizing. Fired in the same ARs, same loads.
I have the X-die in .223 and it works as advertised. I conducted 5 cycle experiments on a batch of single head stamp as well as a batch of mixed range pickup brass. Nothing from those two batches required further trimming. All brass was used in ARs.
No, that tool is meant for a single stage press. As far as I know the only presses that allow swaging while loading is the Dillon 1050 and 1100.

Dillon's new site doesn't have any information about the press refurbishing service and they have not yet answered my email.
While I wait, has anyone here sent in a press lately? If so, how long did it take and what did it cost you? I have a 650 that I recently purchased used and I'd like...
I think the RCBS Grand is discontinued, but if you can find one, grab it. I've had one for seven or eight years and I love it. Reliable, smooth as can be, and RCBS's parts warranty is second to none.
I chronoed my .223 loads using N133 at various ammunition temperature readings. The result was more velocity at higher temperature, and therefore, different elevation scope inputs at 600 yards. I have no idea how this compares to other powders, as this is the only one that I use in my...
