Kinda makes ya wonder why firearm manufacturers say that handloaded ammo will void the warrenty. Federal just had a recall too.

See, there is an up-side to being too blind to shoot match ammunition. My eyes are roughly "green box" accurate nowadays. :-(

Think they would sell it once it got back if you signed a wavier saying it would be destroyed / taken apart for the brass bullet and powder .
