Weird neck on 223 brass. Help me out!

Are they reloads? Looks like someone went heavy with a Lee FCD.

I don’t know. I’ve seen people do some super crazy heavy crimps and nothing looked like that. And i only found it on the WMA stamped brass. So I’m thinking like it’s already been said that it’s just a type of crimp the newer Winchester factory is putting on.

Here is a "regular" vs "Lee Collet Crimp" round

Someone please take a photo of this “heavy collet crimp” that results in like results that the OP is showing in the photos. My Lee (factory and collet)and RCBS crimps look NOTHING like this.
 
I think I may have had some guat surplus around 2001 that was crimped like that. No issue reloading other than until I realized the primer pocket hole (whatever it's really called) was very small I broke half a dozen pins.
