I have a question, looking for a fix that won’t cost much have seen that people have different ways of removing the crimp from military brass. I have been loading a long time, new to High Power Shooting. I have been told Lake City Brass is King, so got my hands on some, starting fixing it up. I used a universal decapping die to remove the primers and have been trimming the brass. Using 223 AR-15 1-8 twists have several bullets to try from 68-77 grain.

I now need to remove the military crimp, any suggestions please. I was looking at the RCBS die at Midway for about $30.00, has anyone used this tool?
