    Just a little resistance at the very bottom of the stroke. But I am just trying to barely remove the crimp. Now days my Mark7 does all the work processing brass. By the time I get around to loading 223/308 and most all pistol calibers, they have already been processed so actually loading them...

    DTA Covert Mystery

    Tried it again yesterday. This time over a CED chronograph with IR screens. First shot, perfectly low. Second shot, right where they should be. Let the gun cool for a few minutes, first shot low. Same drill as always. However, the first shot is also slow. About 100 fps. So it appears to...

    DTA Covert Mystery

    I went to the range last Sunday to try it without the suppressor. I had pulled the barrel, cleaned the shank with acetone just in case and re torqued it all again. I also pulled and retorqued the scope mount. Same damn thing. Let it sit more than a few minutes and the first shot goes low. I...

    I have tried a couple different light setups for my 550s. The Double Alpha is the best. It doesent block your view into the case like the Starlight does. I use the DA in addition to the UFO lights. https://www.doublealpha.biz/us/daa-toolhead-led-lighting-pcb-dillon-550

    Who’s done the full run?

    I started off with a 40X single shot, a 10/22 and a CLE AR-15 upper. The 10/22 was the first to get culled. Then the CLE. The 40X turned into a repeater, which turned into several repeaters. About that time Vudoos came out. I bought one, and then another. Then I bought a Anschutz 1727. I...

    For handgun calibers I like the Arredondo with the UniqueTek micrometer. Scary accurate and dead balls repeatable.

    The FW decapper and swage dies are just like a Redding/Forster benchrest die with a floating sleeve. That sleeve supports the neck of the case before the swage rod enters the case.

    Question about case head separation in 223 AR15

    Using a tapered expander, neck them up to 6mm. Then load them normally with your FL resize die set to 2 thou shoulder bump for normal brass.

    Keeps the case centered so the backup rod doesent ding the case mouth. https://fwarms.com/shop/reloading/f-w-arms-auto-center-swage-foot/

    I start by rollsizing all my brass. 223 included. #2 FW Arms decap #3 FW Arms Swage #6 Dillon trim set to 1.745 Sometimes I add a carbide FL resize die in #8, but not that often these days. I have been loading my 223 Ackley short range ammo on my 1100 lately.

    I am not a fan of the AmmoBot. The Mk7 is a little more refined and you can independently tweak more of the settings like pause, index speed, etc. I have been loading on 1050s since the mid 90s. Love them. Currently I have three 1100s, one with a Mk7 that I use for processing brass. I...

    I bet locally we have about a dozen of them. I am still shooting all of mine. The close one is an SBR. Stays folded up in the truck. Comes out for random varmints.

    I got some of these tabs for loading 9 and 223. Keeps the case a little more secure while it indexes. 1791 Crafts on Etsy made them.

    With a toolhead all set up, it takes less than 10 minutes to change calibers. 5 more minutes if you change primer sizes. I have a few spare toolheads.
