A friend gave me large bag of assorted brass shot shells loaded rifle and handgun ammo. In the bag is some Cor-Bon 38 special and 10 MM. All of the Cor-Bon ammo (?) is in Winchester Brass and has red sealant on the primers. Is this normal for the Cor-Bon?

I am asking because the box of 38 special is over half reloaded 38 special with a boolit which appears to be a keith style SWC. The 10MM and the jacketed 38 special are as described above.

I will pull and salvage the brass all of the ammo which is obviously reloads. Just not sure about jacketed which appears to be factory loads.

Thanks!

I have not bought any Cor Bon in several years, but I am looking at a box of .45acp right now that is plainly head stamped COR-BON 45 AUTO +P. There is no sealant on the primers. It may have changed over the years or some calibers may be different.

I just check the couple boxes of Cor-Bon ammo that I have. The cases are stamped Cor-Bon and there is no sealant on the primers. This ammo is a couple years old.

I have pics of the Cor-Bon and both the 38 Spl. and 10MM boxes are dated. The 10MM (2 full 20 round boxes) has a sticker on the outside of the box with P/N, DOM, LOT, and SD.
99803 99804 99805

The well worn 38 Spl. box has lot # and date stamped on an end flap.
99806 99807 99808
99809
Note the different locations 10MM Sturgis, SD and the 38 Spl. Detroit, MI but the phone # is the same.
