Why not do it yourself? Then you can size it to your chamber.
I do it on my 1050.
de-prime
swage
re-size and trim to 1.748(was shooting for 1.750, but am holding 1.748 consistently so im not messing with it any more)
run a 21st century neck expander mandrel for proper neck tension(.002)
wet stainless tumble
I do not chamfer case mouths as its to time consuming to do in bulk. I take brass back down in the sizing die to match Federal XM193 5.56 brass as measured in a Hornady Headspace gauge.
