Anyone Familiar with AAC ammo ?

Anyone familiar with AAC ammo ? As in particular the brass case manufacturer ?. I suspect PSA Doesn't manufacture their brass cases but rather purchases bulk with a headstamp .
I'm asking as I've Not as yet seen their brass or cartridges . I will very soon however .

Only a reloader would ask about the quality of the brass and not the quality of the ammo.

No sense in buying garbage twice Barrel burning fodder is acceptable provided price is acceptable ,what one makes with it afterwords , IS WHAT COUNTS . IF brass is ho hum ,then I'm better to do Norma as the foundation is sound even at additional $$'s .
You are Correct ONLY a Reloader concerns themselves with what it's made from

Not sure about this one but Starline has made a lot of private label brass in the past. The only sure way would be to ask them who supplies their brass I would think.

I'm awaiting their answer ,IF they will divulge ?. Sometimes contractual agreements Prohibit disclosure . Party A who supplies party B ,doesn't want Company's D E F and P to know who else is competition .

Seeing as JJE Capital and PSA have acquired parts of Remington but Not the ammunition end that went to Vista Outdoors Inc. and They DIDN'T tank or go belly up by any stretch of the imagination Their Federal as well as Remington RCBS and a crap load more companies .

Contacting AAC is far more difficult than anticipated ,as PSA is who one has to contact . Conflicting corporate info , NC or FL as Both are listed for AAC and Neither Web address jives up . Saga continues stay tuned .


So this article was INCORRECT with referencing Vista as tanking .

Uh… wait … isn’t there already Advanced Armament Corporation (AAC) using a similar logo? Why yes, there was. Emphasis on “was”. You see, AAC was a brand owned by Vista along with Remington. When Vista tanked, the parent company of PSA, JJE Capital, bought them so AAC is a sister company to PSA.

JJE Capital also now owns DPMS Panther Arms, Stormlake, AAC, H&R and Parker Brands. The JJE website doesn’t mention those but I read them in another post about the sell-off of Vista. JJE does identify PSA Defense (safety and training), Palmetto State Armory (PSA), and Palmetto Outdoors Shooting Facility.

11/12/22 Update – PSA has a new sister company – Caliber Coffee. Plus there is an insurance company that they’ve had for a while that I overlooked – Right to Bear – that sells carry/self-defense insurance.

PSA itself is actually a family of companies including: DC Machine, Ferrous Engineering, Special Tool Solutions, Spartan Forging and Lead Star Arms. This means these firms are owned by JJE Capital as well.

Okay, returning to Advanced Armament Corporation’s fate: Going forward AAC was split into two divisions – AAC suppressors and firearms (which are to be resurrected) and then AAC Ammo adopted the slogan “America’s Ammo Company”.

What about the ammo?
When I first heard about it, they planned to stick to major calibers – 5.56 NATO, 7.62×51 NATO, 5.45×39, 7.62×39, 7.62x54r and 9×19 Luger but that was hearsay. Now they are still ramping up I am sure but what is on the PSA website right now as I write this post are some components – 9mm 115 gr, and .223 55gr that are in stock. For ammo, they list 9mm 115gr FMJ and 9mm 124gr FMJ and both are in stock.
