While i dont know how top brass dose the prep, I might say they are using dillion equipment, If it was trimmed, they pry didnt use an expander in the trim die, you cant, the trim station die is a size die, so if they did it this way, and didnt run a 2nd size die with expander after the trim station, the neck pry didnt get expanded back out where it should be. This is commen with many places selling ready to load 223/556 brass as well as 300 black out.
