I recently won a barrel and had a 223 Wylde chambered up to be a trainer Bolt gun. I have been shooting through a stash of Federal/American Eagle 55gr FMJ bulk ammo for practice to 3-400 yards. It's not wildly accurate (1.5-2MOA) but it's better than burning through my dasher resources.
I've been saving this brass and considering reloading it for more precise trainer ammo with a 75gr bullet. I've been reaming the primer pockets and weight sorting it and tossing any real outliers. Would this be worth it or is the brass going to hold me back from making accurate reloads? And by accurate I'm thinking <1MOA. I'm not looking for a bughole group.
