I don't shoot a lot of rifle rounds. Probably load around 500 .223 a year. RCBS dies work great for me. I size using Imperial sizing wax. I run all cases through a L.A. Wilson case gauge. Lets you know the shoulder has been rolled back enough and when you need to trim. When I do need to trim a CTS engineering trimmer was cheap and works great. When I started this caliber I bought a huge bag of Hornady 55gr. FMJBT's cheap along with H335 powder. Both work pretty good together out of my AR.
