9mm nickel brass

I like the attitude put forth by some here, "My minds made up, don't try to convince me with facts".

I'm with you snuffy. All those "Internet Experts" with no credentials.

People see that shiny finish, they immediately think CHROME, if they bother to think at all. Why don't they just plate them with chrome? Be cause it IS much harder than the steel dies and the steel in gun barrels, cylinders, and chambers.

As far as tossing them in the trash goes, brass is worth quite a bit to recyclers, money that can be spent buying those "BETTER" plain brass shells!

One guy somewhere on the internet, maybe ol' V Al, said the nickel brass was so hard it could scratch carbide dies.!!!! Two things can cut carbide, diamond and ceramic cutters. Another genius said he wouldn't load nickel cases because the nickle could flake off, imbed in a bullet, get drug down the barrel, cutting away the rifling! Wow!

If you don't like it, don't buy premium ammo that comes loaded in nickel cases. Or don't pick it up from the ground at the range, leave it for me!
