    I have all the tooling setup, just have been dealing with filling commercial orders of 5.56mm. We have also been essentially shut down in the shop for a couple of weeks due to the heat. Things are starting to wind back up this week. Based on current situation, I would say two weeks.

    ** Updated 27 July 2018 **

    This will be the final update before everything goes into production. Optical HS sorter is a bust. So it will be of mixed HS, for now... All HS are ones that convert correctly to correct neck thickness. You will need to deburr and chamfer the or run an expander ball through the neck. This is because north of 2,000 pieces per hour anything I tried to do with neck tension started changing other dimensions significantly.

    OAL Length 1.360" +/-0.002" (98%)
    Headspace SAAMI (-)0.003 +/- 0.001"
    Neck Thickness Range 0.0105 - 0.0115"
    Neck Tension - 0.302" (Very tight)

    It has been a slow process, I know. However commercial loaders are my bread and butter, and they have been consuming all of my .223 / 5.56mm equipment time. I now have a bit of a break where I can get these small projects sorted out.
