Thanks for all of the advice.
I am getting set up this weekend to start loading .223 I will do it without the chamfer and deburr steps and see how it goes. If it is not satisfactory, then I'll get a hand tool to use for now and then buy one of the case prep centers, probably that Frankford Arsenal one.
I'm going to be setting up the RT1200 trimmer and I still have to figure out if I can set it so that, for example, any case going through will come out at 1.750 regardless of pre-trim size (so, some will not get trimmed at all if already 1,750 or shorter) and yet they all will still get full-length re-sized by the trimmer/sizer die that is integral to the RT1200? Not sure about that yet.
Not new to reloading ammo. Just new to reloading .223. Anyway, I asked for advice, got some that I liked and some I did not like, but I needed to hear both sides, so thanks to everyone.
I think these are the steps, in order:
1. range pick up brass (some is mine, some from other
shooters) gets tumbled in corn cobb media, then separated from the media.
2. Lube the cases (I'll be using Dillon's case lube).
3. Load the case feeder hopper, and have the Dillon .223 re-sizer/deprimer in station one on an XL650 progressive loader. Probably will turn the die back an extra half turn from where it contacts the shell plate with a case in the die so that it does not completely re-size.
4. RT1200 trimmer/resizer set up in station three, with the proper adjustments for proper re-sizing, checked with a Dillon .223 case gauge. Trimmer (hopefully) set to make all brass a uniform length of 1.750
5. Run the brass through the press, then take the cases out and run each one through my Dillon 600 super swager thingie. Then tumble again to remove the case lube. (Not sure, do I swage the primer pockets first and then tumble to remove lube, or tumble and then swage the primer pockets?)
6. then, with a second tool head, set up the press with primer seating and powder measure / funnel assembly in Station Two, powder check in station three, bullet seating in station Four, and bullet taper crimp in Station Five.
I'll be using Win 748, range pick up brass, either CCI small rifle primers or Win small rifle primers. Shooting in an AR-15 rifle.
