Just starting out in reloading in general and figured ya'll could help out.
Bought some once fired Lake City Brass (.223) and some 55gr fmj bt's with cannelure (reported military m 193's Copper jacket lead core bullets). Some of my reading online states that reloading and shooting this setup is not recommended in the commercial rifles secondary to increased pressures.. I just figured I'd go with a starting load from Lyman on Hornady 55gr fmj bt and work the load up from there. It seems that the H335 has a strong following so I figured that is a good starting point, and then I purchased some CCI #41 primers. I Will be reloading with RCBS 223 dies. I also read somewhere that the brass will need "decrimped", won't the sizer square this away... I will be firing these through a RRA 16" stainless barrel. Appreciate you reading this and hope for some input..
