My most accurate .223 load uses LC brass. But I've got multiple years of LC brass, and some NATO brass from other manufacturers. So how similar is this brass? Two questions:

1. Does LC brass vary from year to year? I'm wondering it my accuracy will improve if I sort by year?

2. I've picked up some NATO brass from other manufacturers, mostly WCC. Will I get better accuracy if I segregate the WCC from the LC? Or is it close enough that I'd be wasting time?
