On doing my full inspection of the last purchase of 9mm range brass I found some wierd looking brass, obviously no good.
The range I shoot at is indoor and only about 1% of us load our own shells. These came out of the last 1K of range brass I bought.
Does anyone know what caused these cases to be the way I found them?
They didn't come out of one of my guns but it makes me wonder, knowing that probably 99% of the cases that hit the floor are factory, once fired loads, what the heck caused to these?
The case on the left has the same cobwebbing that the middle one has but no holes,
The one in the middle is worst case
The one on the right is bloated
I know that 9mm is one of the most mass produced ammo their is but I've never seen cases screwed up like these before. I only started buying range brass this year so this is a little dis-heartening.
Are they case defects or gun defects, or both, or does someone in my area need a lesson on re-loading 9mm shells?
