Winchester Brass
i recently went out and bought a bag of new winchester brass for my 223. It's been so long since i bought brass i know this is a stupid question but does the brass already come resized or do i have to resize it? Normally i dont buy brass i just use brass from before i started reloading but it was time for some new. So do i have to resize it fella's or is it already resized?

Yea, its sized enough to work, but usually inconsistent shoulder measurementsand some dented necks, sometimes little longer than it should be. So I go ahead and FL size, trim, and deburr.

RE: Winchester Brass
I run it through the neck only.....Winchester brass is very good but still has dents in the neck. IMHO, you don't need to do a full resize. Measure a few, and if they are close.....go for it. Regards, Rick.
No brass is going to give it's best accuracy untill it's fireformed anyway, so i see no sense in another step in sizeing new brass.
