Just finished loading up 500 rounds of 223 brass so I can fireform them to AI. Spending a lil time in the loading closit I was able to find some old remington primers that I hadnt used so I used them up. I found some left over benchmark, BLC2, H414 and varget powder to finish off (still had to break into my prized stock of powder too). Then I found some old Starke bullets that I purchased years ago before they went out of business so I used them up too( no need doing load development on them since they went out of business).
Yep Ackey inproved cartridges sure come in handy for using up parafanalia that you dont need anymore and still work just fine for fireforming brass.

Thad, I have a whole can of mixed unkown powders from pulled bullets saved up. You want to use that for your AI fireforming?? ::)

The first shot might be a lil spooky but after that, its just like any other load development ;D

....and nobody can ask to borrow loaded rounds from you. Seems they always borrow rounds and don't bring the empties back.

That is one of the advantanges of owning an AI.

What I like most about my AIs(223 and 22-250) is you can form brass and whack PDs at the same time.
