[QUOTE="jbs2014, post: 2303850, member: 94052"] How did your loads perform at your trip to the range? I know I am way late to the party on this but the Fed 205M primers gave me the best results and the lowest ES with Lake City 5.56 brass. I also use the RCBS small base sizing die but opted for the Redding competition seater die. Do you have a 5.56 or .223 chamber? I have a Redding sizing die that I recently acquired and I am going to experiment with annealing the once fired brass I have and setting the shoulders back .005'. My hope is that the annealing creates more uniform neck tension and decreases that ES for the load that I am running right now. I will see this weekend how it all turns out. [/QUOTE]
