    primer pockets

    I ALWAYS clean (wet ss tumble) my primer pockets...Factory new, clean. The one time you need to take a shot that might save your life, and all you hear is "click", it will be too late. No problem, if all your doing is shooting holes in paper. But, they're your reloads...you can do what you...

    AR Loading Confusion

    I'm just going to start with the lowest starting charge for the .223 (23gr), and work up to the Max 5.56 load (26gr) .5gr at a time. It has also been my experience that fastest isn't always the most accurate. Range time on Thursday...:D Thanks, guys...

    AR Loading Confusion

    My AR15 has a Wilde chamber. Since there are different loadings for .223 and 5.56, which one do I use? I load Ramshot TAC behind Nosler 69gr Custom Comp HPBT, and am looking for accuracy. Should I start at the lowest .223 load and end with the highest 5.56 load?..:confused:

    Crimping .223 for AR, can it be overcrimped?

    Military 5.56 ammunition is crimped because it will be used in an automatic capable weapon. The crimp is to insure that the bullets do not get loosened and moved in the cases. If Civilian .223/5.56 cases have sufficient neck tension, crimping is not at all necessary...unless automatic fire is...
