You put a leveling kit in er Fredrick? Thinkin about doin mine No just trd exhaust. And a set of good rubber I highly recommend upgrading to the TRD swaybars. Noted they have appeal.

I’m inclined to turn or bore .0005” off them. It would give .0015” of clearance in the chamber with a .292”collet. It’s also way over thinking it.

Got the brass already prepped a while back thanks to Sendero Man (Scott) and have also picked up some loads in prepped brass by Copper Creek. I’ve seen no issues with newer lots of Hornady brass that George is selling either.. “There are some who can live without wild things and some who cannot.” ALDO LEOPOLD
