Regardless of what the perceived wisdom of the internet would have you believe, forming 20 Tac brass from 223 (should it be necessary) is a doddle. If you can F/L resize 223 brass, you can form 20 tac. Forming dies my a**e!
Its a custom rifle built by a friend 650 he wants for it with modarator fust not sure because of availability of brass and the fact I will have to start reloading
its a 20 tac dont know the name of the gun Smith I know he's a good one has done a rebarrel on my dads 222.50 shot count is 200 built with rem model 7 action pacnor barrel ar15 modarator brass with it boyds stock and two other stocks scope mounts and bullets primmers ect
As long as its easy enough to get hold of that was my main concern not so much the reloading been thinking about starting for a long time and having troubles with my hmr has given me a push
Agreed. But with the Prac there is no 'fire-forming' step. Neck and shoot. What you get the first time out is what you get the second -and third.~MuirRegardless of what the perceived wisdom of the internet would have you believe, forming 20 Tac brass from 223 (should it be necessary) is a doddle.

Here's another 20 cal wildcat I'll throw into the mix. Called the 20 Extreme. You'll have to google it as I can't post links until I get 5 posts.....this is #3....
I have one built on a Sako AI Hunter wearing a 12" twist Krieger barrel.
The cases are easily made by trimming 222 cases back to 1.575 and running them into the 20 Extreme die which forms the shoulder, no fire forming required.
I got the rifle from the fella that came up with it. He had a couple reamers and Hornady dies made for it.
It shoots very well pushing the 32 gr Sierra Blitzking to 4000 and 40 grainers run about 3800.
