Don't want to push my luck pm'ing people with dumb questions so I'll do it with the whole community.
I'm going with a rock chucker, and L.E. Wilson for trim and primer pocket reaming. I've got everything covered (need to figure out the comparator lol) but I'm lost on dies for 223's. (I feel like I'm being stupid and majoring in the minors here. )
The loads will be going through an AR and a bolt action in 556. So I get that if I get two sizing dies and keep the two sets of brass separate I'll get better brass life because less sizing, but the options for dies are confusing.
Some people say short base for the round I'll put in the AR. Some say the AR rounds need to be crimped. And I've read reviews that one company dies with another shell holder will result in improper seating and sizing.
Help please. If I'm over thinking this sorry. If you're pressed for time feel free to link the dies I should get and tell me to shut up lol. But any help you can offer to clean up my confusion would be greatly appreciated.
