    Browning ammo

    I have seen a bunch of new brass showing up at the range. It is all blackened nickel cases. Has anyone used any of the brass yet?

    I had a guy who said that nickel cases were the best. He shot high power rifle competition.

    I've used some of those. I thought they were steel at first and almost threw them away. They loaded and shot fine, seems to be good brass.

    I don't normally use any kind of nickle as it seems to stick in my powder thru dies. I usually give all of my nickle 9's, 45's to a friend as I think he is part crow. He likes shiney things. I my try to load a few of these and see if they stick or not. I got about 20 of the 300 BLK ones the other day.

    I have about 40 pieces of yellow Browning 30-06 brass I've had for 30 yrs and at least 10 loadings, pretty brass when cleaned up and none have failed.I would get more if I could find it.
