    Not all 5.56 is crimped right?

      If it's mixed headstamp. This is a better deal if your local to he met area.

      I usually find big quantity of matched headstamp on gunbroker.
      Winter time I grab a bucket and work on just removing the crimp.
      Been gone too long. It's been 15 to 20 years since i had to shelf my guns. Those early years sucked.
      I really miss the good old Pomona Gun Shows.

        Just bought 1k of each .308 and 5.56 military brass, along with the Dillon 600 and corresponding case gauges. The Dillon 600 looks easy to fly threw cases with although it is another step to do.

        One of their videos showed the importance of a case gauge and properly resizing the cases. If they only last a couple shootings thats plenty for me. Might as well give them a try.

          Don't know if I see a difference or not. It's just what I do the first go round with once fired or new brass in the interest of consistency.
          The more variables I can take out of the equation the better I like it.

          And it makes me feel all worm and fuzzy like Linus and his blanket.
