Have you put a caliper to them? See if they are measuring correct? If they they caliper out right, I would say they should be ok to use.

Are you gonna try to shoot them through an AR15? If so, get rid of the moly. It will get in your gas system.
thats what the reloads look like that i used to buy from happy hollow and they were a 55gr vmax with moly coat.
No, Sig 556, but I will make sure they are clean...it's the Monk in me.
You are tracking like a vcr brother!!
The moly coating if put on as a dry coating (meaning without any oil or wax base) can cause the bore to rust. I reserve the moly coated bullets to my stainless barrels. If the moly coating is incorporated in a wax or oil base, it doesn't cause the moisture from the air to be attracted to it and hence the rust. I tumble some of the 223 bullets that I make from 22 rimfire jackets in moly powder, but again, I only shoot those out of stainless barrels and I do clean them thoroughly. Blitzfike
If you want the dies looked over you can bring them by and we can go through them. Id weigh each bullet too!
I did not get the 223 dies with this batch of stuff. I did get a set of 45ACP dies which I would appreciate a look if you don't mind. Thank you for the offer.
If the bullet is spinning in the case it might be the seating die not being set properly. A semi auto rifle needs to have a tapered crimp on the case for proper feeding of the round. If you do not do this then the bullet can be pushed back into the case.
I bought some bullets a while back, that measure .222 - .223, rather than .223-.224. I have to set the crimp a little tighter than normal to keep them from spinning (or on some of them, falling into the case 
).
