PPU brass l have used is not consistent by weight in 222 or 223. SIG is very consistent in 223 followed by Norma. Another great 223 brass is AUSA. Sorriest of all 222/223s has always been Winchester.
R-P is the softest 223 brass l have used. l reform 223 cases into TAC20 and 222Rem. One pass with either TAC20 or 222Rem full length sizing die is usually all l need to form the new case using R-P 223Rem brass. After trimming l simply load and SHOOT. No annealing required!!
PPU cases are HARD in 223Rem. They dimple and crease during case forming without annealing:-(
