I take brass that has been fired then FL sized using the dies I am going to use and then use that piece of brass to set headspace. That way the brass doesn't get worked as much as it normally would. On my 223 it shoots great and other than it will not chamber factory ammo I have no issues. This isn't a big deal as I reload everything I shoot. I only do this for the rifles I plan on reloading for.
If I ever decide I want to shoot factory ammo I'll just back the headspace off and use a guage.
