    Pins stick in 223 brass

    Throw the cases that have pins packed in them or in the flash holes into an empty vibratory tumbler and turn it on. They all come out.

    400 .223 cases below minimum, can I load them?

    I trim all of my .223/5.56 brass to 1.740 and that is the first and last time I have to trim it. Trimming brass is not my favorite part of brass prep, so l do it once and never have to do it again. Some have been reloaded with midrange loads a dozen times and they seem to quit growing around...

I am reading on here that XYZ powder may be too fast or too slow and better results my come from changing to ABC powder.
