Resizing, tumbling and priming

Post by Wiley »

Brass prep. I don't mind it once I get started. I resized a few pieces of .223 and put them in the tumbler with stainless pins and a few pieces of .308 brass. Gonna prime the .223 when it's done and be ready to load some rounds for testing.

Gotta find me a .223 bolt action soon so I can really dial a load in other than shooting through an AR. Hoping to find a CZ 527 carbine in .223. If anybody sees one for sale, give me a holler. They're like hens teeth right now. Aside from that I need a cheap varmint rifle in 223 that I can shoot pond varmints up to 200 yards and coyotes out to 400 yards.
The older I get the more I understand why roosters just scream to start their day.

Thanks, Jason. I may have a line on something :)
