    I haven't had a chance to do much shooting lately but a mate of mine said he is definitely getting better accuracy after crimping. Both on subs and supers. I am not loading anymore til the crimp arrives in a week or two.
    Hi ODL,
    Set the Lehigh 194gr ME 2.270 OAL and are not crimped as it is a bolt gun. Not really doing anything special to the 5.56 LC cut brass except weighing them in two lots heavy and light weight cases and cleaning primer pockets/flash holes for each reload.

    Here is the best 100m target from this mornings testing, Hornady 150gr SST/ 9.9gr adi 2205, OAL 2.260


    This is the rig.
