Has anyone tried these yet? How did they do?
It'd be for a 223 AR
Happy New Year!

Should I crimp them or not crimp them?The 77 smk I load shoot .39-.52 in all of my gas guns. I’m all for saving a dollar but I’m not sure it’s worth the headache or the reality that the hornady may not shoot as good to switch to them and do load development again to save $38 on 500 bullets
Myself, I found my AR accuracy suffering. It dawned on me when I ejected a live round and put it back in the magazine, that it had grown. I started crimping my AR ammo and it came alive. The inertia was unseating the bullet when the bolt slammed home causing varying distance from the lands. My gun went from over MOA to about 1/2 MOA. Maybe some brass brands have thicker necks and more tension, but with the surplus Lake City I use, it helped me to crimp.Should I crimp them or not crimp them?
AR, accuracy is priority 1.

That one in particular is a KD4.What chamber are you using?
I would be happy if they were the same. My biggest concern is consistency over time.I would like to know if it's better than Sierra.
