asmurff Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 I'm just getting into reloading .223, until now I've only reloaded pistol calibers. When trimming cases as long as the length is between the "maximum length" and the "trim length" I do not need to trim if I'm not after match grade accuracy. Is this true or am I making a false assumption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodent.22 Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Mike I've only reloaded pistol calibers and in my case I'm unable to shoot with any real accuracy. Can't help ya.... :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 yes you are correct. Also trim after resizing. Regarding resizing for .223 for an AR-15 I think you should full length resize to avoid frustration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted March 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 I do full length resize before trimming. I found an article at Box of Truth on resizing which says the same.I'll get busy reloading after I get rid of this cold/upper repiratory crud and can concentrate.

lmao_37 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Lee make a great case trimmer once you have the trimmer kit you just buy the right guide shaft and resize the trim and as its a fixed shaft its that easy i can do trim with easehttp://leeprecision.com/case-conditioning-tools/case-trimming-tools/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
