$1 each at gun city until midnight. Hasn't been this price in a while.
I've used it. Get a few misfires and need to anneal it if your going to reload it. That's my experience with it anyway
I haven't had any misfire so far, but I've only used about 60 rounds so far through my rifle.Quote:

Some of my brass looks like its corroded away slightly on the edge of the opening.
Would need lots of milling to polish this stuff up too!
Ive reloaded it. Ive found if you dont anneal it the neck wont size down.
I think all that you can assume from that is that some people would sell anythingQuote:

Shake each round, if it doesn't make a sound, the powder is wet. So not shootable.
I've bought hundreds of rounds. Ended up pulling them all. Cleaning, resizing, new Fed primers and new ADI powder and reseated.
Noting wrong then. :XD: Shoots well in my 303s.
You can also buy just the projectiles from GC.
OK, seems to be a bit of a mixed bag im assuming?Quote:

I guess CAC is the only real option left? Corrosive sure, but its supposed to be reliable, just remember to clean out your barrel well afterwards.
Don’t forget that as little as 30 rounds of cordite loaded ammo (CAC) ball will start to burn out your lead which will inhibit accuracy with boat tail pills!Quote:

tumbling loaded ammo...hmmmm wonder what that actually does to the powder and priming compounds....
I would think it's a good way to unseat projectiles and therefore let moisture in.Quote:
