Went shooting today, local range had some Independence ammo (they apparently can't get their hands on anything from CCI Blazer right now, they're apparently too busy cranking out all the 9mm they can?). Anyways, shot about 150 rounds through my Colt 1991-A1.
First, I have to say this is some of the dirtiest ammo I have ever shot. Visible smoke, but definitely lower flash than some other stuff I've shot.
Second, I suspect this is a peculiarity to my gun (I suspect I may need a new recoil spring, actually) but I was flinging brass into the next county. About half was bouncing off the lane divider hard enough to hit me, and the other half was being flung over my head against the back wall, ten feet behind me.
Finally, EVERY single piece of brass had a dent in it about half way up the wall of the brass. EVERY one. I may post this question in the handgun forum, but anyone know what might be causing this? These dents were significant enough that I decided not to pick up my brass to try to reload it. I haven't noticed it with other brands of brass...
