[QUOTE="bounty hunter 2, post: 1233230, member: 90711"] Another accuracy advantage as mentioned earlier is to form brass from 223. This creates a tight neck situation that you can fit the necks to because the 223 brass is thicker at the point where the neck will be on a 221. What I like to see here is not more than .001" neck expansion from loaded OD to fired OD. That will help with case life as well. I also like to re anneal case necks after about every 5 shots which also enhances case life and makes neck tension more uniform over the life of the case. [/QUOTE]
