[QUOTE="MachV, post: 717807, member: 93"] First off welcome to LRH Second =good luck....your going to need it! Haveing 6 223s and my love of prairie dog shooting I've tryed to do this for years with mixed results. Meaning that I could get a couple to shoot the same load minute of prairie dog while some required thier own load. The one AR upper will not even share brass and requires me to keep that brass only for that gun! If one of the firearms does not have a big chamber it might work to full lenth resize and trim so the case fits inside all of the chambers. I pick up a lot of brass and some of it takes a small base die to get them back on track. Then there is the length to throat problem and a magazine length that might limit what loads in what. If you are just reloading blasting ammo reloading to minimum speck will allow the ammo to go bang and the bullet to leave the barrel somewhere in the dirrection of the target? Dont load them longer than 2.25 or you could run into rounds that will not fit the magazine or will overpreasure in a short throat. Dont load them anyhwere near max, Hot weather and hot chambers can raise preasures! I ended up rebarreling a couple of Savages to 223ai and 204, selling one 223 and replaceing it with a 20PPC and I crush all brass fed through the AR. Now I have 2 223s=one shoots 55SPBT and AA2200 powder into one hole and the other shoots 40 grain Vmaxes and Tac into small groups. [/QUOTE]
