The brass I get is picked up one time shot mixed head stamped.I brought it home and fl sized it loaded it shot it.As I'm fl sizing it for the 2nd time it feels easier to size it.Is that possible?Could it be my chamber is tighter then the gun it came out of the first time?I'm shooting a RR 1/8 Wylde, I'm pretty new to reloading about a year.

Could be that your chamber is better.
Must also consider that your die is good and lubed up now and you aren't as new to the hobby.
I clean my .223 sizer each time I sit down to size. I disassemble it and clean it with aerosol brake cleaner and an AR-15 chamber brush. After it dries I squirt 1 pump of DCL into it and roll it around before setting it up. 1X fired LC flows in and out like hot knife through butter
