Ukraine war Bullshit.

Only thing you have changed is lost 20% of your country, destroyed millions of homes, destroyed infrastructure and have lost how many hundreds of thousands…

You haven’t changed shit. Any way Russia aint it. China is that motherfucker to worry about.

I know if my area, country was being invaded… my ass wouldnt be on this forum losing the ideology, war against the citizens of the one country that has done more than anyone to give me a fighting chance.

Disrespectful little bitch.
our 3 Uke assholes are proof that Ukraine really is a European country. they are corrupt and start shit that they can't handle. then they piss.moan and cry for US to come bail them out.

Ukraine war Bullshit.

Staying out like we should!! Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, ME, hopefully the power at the top has learned lessons about staying of crap that is none of our business. Your country, your war, you fight it.
hate to say so,but you are right FS. you might throw in Philippines,Cuba,banana wars,non mil meddling in China in 20s/30s,AFG,Iraq,Syria. truth is i don't think Truman had anywhere to with Korea,maybe Grenada and Gulf 1? think gulf 1 could have been handled differently but... i still am unsure about why we invaded Panama. always been unclear to me what the excuse and real reasons were.

How good are Custom Rifle Barrels?

I did enough research on my own recently while I was looking for my next blank. I went with a CRB. I don't doubt that it will outshoot me and my (limited) skills.

I've had Kriegers, Bartleins, and Brux...and they are all equal on paper to me... even my current Krieger and Bartlein in 6.5x47 shoot the loads developed for the other barrel into a half-minute. I expect no difference with a CRB.

Crushing .223 Cases

Well, your numbers make no sense - 2.235, and 2.20?

Get a new caliper that you trust. Usable ones are cheap. Good ones aren't that expensive.
Fixed it. The bullet is .2235. Mitoyu calipers work for most things.
Yeah, it’s some really hard cryptography to figure out. OP inadvertently moved decimal place. Bullets measure 0.2235. Hornady expander ball measures 0.220. 3 thou or neck tension seems right.

How are the cases cleaned? Are you lubing the case necks?

I crushed a couple of 300 BO cases once, but I was attempting to seat and crimp in one operation. Separating west from crimp resolved the problem. On that note, is your seating die adjusted properly?

Bingo!

I removed the micrometer seating stem, and the case still came up hard in the same place. It was the seating die that was crushing the case, not the seating stem.

The die had to be backed out almost its full length on my Forster press. The die was last used on a Hornady Lock-n-Load. I screwed the seating die down to make contact with the shell plate. That doesn't work.

Thank you.
