I don't sort LC 5.56 brass by year myself - I did at one time but I could not see any difference between them. When dealing with range pickup it's more important to me to check that it hasn't already been reloaded already - lots of commercial reloads use LC brass. I may still use it after close inspection, but I keep it in a separate batch. With my last bunch, the reloaded stuff was all LC 04 and 05, and the once fired was LC 09-11 - so I guess it kinda worked out that way but it wasn't the main point. It is nice to know in case they get mixed though....
