[QUOTE="lloydsmale, post: 857072, member: 41442"] i found through the years that the bigger the case the less it matters. Something like a 300 mag will usually shoot fine with mixed brass. It may shoot say a couple tenths of an inch worse but not enough to make a major differnce if your shooting game with the load not competeing in a target competition. But in small cases like the 223 it can make a big differnce and in the case of 223s it especially matters because of the wide veriety of cases. Commercial cases vary in capasity and they you have to throw in military brass which is all over the place in capasity, case weight and bullet tension. If im shooting it in an ar i dont worry about it but when loading for my varmit rig i keep specific lots of brass just for it. [/QUOTE]
