Great thread!!! Great info new guy's read and read!!!
my opinion I believe a chronograph is a must!! it tells a lot only seen it mentioned a few times..
If you read most problems (yes I said most not all) can be solved by using moderate loads yotes can't side step 3200 fps vs 3700 etc
OAL gauge is a great tool read and read on its use...
I read one guy saying that treat crimped primer brass like regular brass please correct me if I'm wrong but I strongly disagree if you don't use a primer pocket de-crimper on crimped primer brass the edges of some primers can catch and fold edge of primer over are very hard to see at times mostly only way to tell by feel while priming...
There was very little discussion on crimped brass..and there is a lot of crimped .223 mil brass out there
My two cents...
