![]() All of this of checking this and that is a waste of time. IMHO unless you are shooting Bullseye competition and have a super match grade pistol. Then a visual check that took 3 times to find it. The only way I found them was when checking with a case gauge. I have also had loaded rounds with a split case that was almost impossible to see. I have found that I would have split cases after they were loaded than before. No clue.įor all practical purposes I load mixed brass. state or something.sure, assumed Muslim or Israeli at first, but broke out the readers and a magnifying glass and now have no idea."9mm strange headstamp" and a dozen other similar queries didn't get it done. I was assuming foreign, but that looks like a registered trademark marking and maybe a bad stamp of a U.S. It's super quick to do a tray of 50 cases and do a 360 look inside every case than to look into every case and then pick each up, spin it around, and examine the outside.does that make sense?Ĥ.) I have identified every piece of strange brass I could find.except this one. Same with signs of pressure.assuming if I see a 'ring around the bottom', a split forming, bulged brass, dents, etc, I would be able to just as easily see it on the inside given the thinness of the brass. I am starting to think the outside inspection is somewhat duplicative, insofar as I turn the tray to look at the upper area inside, then tilt slightly to look at left side, right side, bottom, so in a matter of a minute, I've plucked out a lot of non-"FC", checked for stepped cases, examined the entire inside of the brass and ready to flip over to check the headstamp/rim area.which leads me to #3.ģ.) Especially with regards to 9mm, wouldn't the cracks primarily form from the inside out? If an anomaly on the outside, I should be able to detect with good visual inspection of the inside, no? I ask, as I am getting blazing fast at loading up the tray of 50, looking in every case ALL THE WAY AROUND the wall, and then flipping it over and looking at every headstamp. If I change my workflow, I might just sort for my Starline and "FC" and put the rest aside until needed.Ģ.) Do you look around the entire OUTSIDE of every case (again, I'll be reloading 9mm minor only for a number of months)? I'm getting decent sized bags of WIN, Win NATO, and PMC (the cheaper stuff), but some of these headstamps are barely producing a dozen.15 bags of separation seems.asinine. The majority of this bucket is indoor range pickups and the majority of that is my once-fired "FC" Federal AE brass I've saved. So here are the last of my brass questions, I think.ġ.) Does anyone just sort for a major headstamp and then chuck everything else in an 'other' bag/bin? I am already at the point where doing the tray of 50 looking on the insides for stepped/issues, I am able to pull all WIN and PMC without even looking at the headstamp.hundreds done with looking in the cases only and I am at 97% positive identification. While doing my newfound '.40 tray inspection' of 9mm, I am seeing all sorts of inconsistencies in size, even with the naked eye. ![]() I have 15+ bags (of different headstamps) on the bench, and while I am only ~1,400 cases into it, I am starting to question my decision. Sorting this 9mm brass is easily the worst aspect of reloading for me so far. 300 AAC Blackout Xtreme New Unprimed Brass Cases *NEW*. 300 AAC Blackout Xtreme New Unprimed Brass Cases *NEW*īrand new, never fired unprimed brass. 500 Smith and Wesson Mixed HS Fired Brass Cases. 500 Smith and Wesson Mixed HS Fired Brass Casesįired. 500 Smith and Wesson Starline Unprimed Brass Cases *NEW*.
