I prefer using Lake City brass in my match AR for High Power. It's cheap and it's good brass.

First step is to send the brass off to my tumbler for cleaning.

I deprime/size by using my Hornady match bushing die. For case lube, I use a lube pad and RCBS case lube II. Wipes off with a damp rag.

After I deprime I check the trim lenght on a Forster trimmer. A few cranks on the handle and it done.

After I get the batch sized and trimmed I then swage on a Dillon Super swage. I've found I prefer the "feel" of a swaged primer pocket over a cut one. The Super Swage is easy to use and it's quick.

I found the best money spent on making smaller groups is to uniform the primer pockets. I mounted a uniformer on a elec. screw driver and have at it. This is a pain but once it done, it's done.

I still camfer, chamfer even though I'm using SMK's.

600 yard ammo brass gets weighed. It hurts when the brass gods decide they need to be fed.
