Default 223 to 17mk4

I was thinking of doing some 17mk4 out of 223 but I just picked up a screwdriver and stabbed myself in the eye....whew!...over that now. Still have 400 pcs I did and everytime one of those cases hit the ground you would think I dropped a diamond the way I scramble for it.

Yeah Chuck.
The trials we small caliber people go through !
Bangin my head against the wall never felt so good !
If I put a value on the time I spend reloading the 17FB, even at $1.00 an hr. I'd still be ahead to buy new. How can you put a price tag on all this fun !

Default I was

Spotlighting with Trevort one night when his young bloke dropped a Machball case.I thought at the time his reaction was way over the top but after my recent experience I can see why.
I reckon its similar to slamming your hand in a car door.

Since I made my initial post I received my Harbor Freight 2" cutoff saw. It is a wonderful piece of equipment. It easily cuts the excess neck off. I wish that I had it when I was shooting a lot of 30 Herret.

The power adapter for the Wison trimmer will give the smoothest squarest cut necks bar non.
