One would think there would be a market for cylinder brass with all the wildcats out there...
There's barely a market for .30-06 cylinder brass. ...And most of that market is based solely around the .270 Win/.30-03 Spgfld/.280 Rem/.35 Whelen case length.

I think the lack of a manufacturer of 5.56/.223 brass is due to the super-abundance of once-fired and new brass on the market. What does it matter if case life is only 4 firings, if the case is worth more as scrap than what you paid for it? Add the fact that many wildcatters just use .222 Rem Mag brass... and there's not much demand for the cylinder variety.
