Greetings,
While forraging in the brass bin at the range, I noticed a few times that peculiar thing: 44mag brass mixed with 45 colt brass. In fact, each time I saw 45colt brass, there is some 44mag mixed with it at about the same spot in the 5 gallon bucket.
Yesterday, I took it out of the bucket and decided to clean it just out of curiosity. To my surprise, I found out a few 44mag brass with middle case failure on the longitulinal (4 out of 22). Moreover, I found out some pretty battered brass (not shinny, bottom has a lot of scratches) but also nice and shinny ones.
Let's speculate here:
- Is it possible that guy reloads and uses 44mag to shoot 45 colt?
- All the ones battered have a red mark on the primer. Is it lacker or a sharpy?
- That range sells Antlanta Ammo. It is reload ammo. Is it possible they reload 45colt and 44 mag in 45 colt?
Thank you
P.S.: For the first time, I saw 2 side by side 45acp brass in the bucket with a head separation. It was half tored up. Veryinteresting those buckets...
