[QUOTE="budlight, post: 1077277, member: 2939"] I guess that you don't understand...... This case doesn't even have a bullet in it. It has just been trimmed to 1.745 then resized and primed. In this Dillon .223 case gauge you can see it does not go down all the way the shoulder to case end even full length resized and over cammed in a RCBS rock crusher is off by a few .001's. These 5.56 are not SAAMI spec like .223 Very limited of you to think about bullet seating depth. It actually comes out that trying to use 5.56 stamped brass is the problem. I bought 1000's of range brass and did not sort them originally. Even my competition .223 dies can't resize them to fit quality tight chambers. Super sloppy 5.56 military chambered barrels work just fine with all those reloaded rounds. It was a live and learn. I just bought a crappy mil spec 20 inch to use them up...... So sleep better tonight! [IMG]http://i1332.photobucket.com/albums/w610/nogopher/DSCN2563badcase1_zpsmkdtuxfo.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/QUOTE]
