What headstamp brass do you toss in 9MM?

[CQB45ACP]

The Atomic Energy Police here seem to leave lots of them lying around, they use FC and Speer.

The name “Atomic Energy Police” is creepy. Besides leaving brass lying around, what do they do?

 

[Ks5shooter]

None unless it wooped.Save almost done with brass load and mark accordingly and let it fly.

He doesn't discard any brass unless it is physically in bad shape or worn out. For brass that has reached its usage limit, he marks it as such and leaves it on the range after its final firing.

Thanks. I didn’t get it either. I’m glad somebody was able to translate.

What do you not like about S&B? I think I have some somewhere but have not loaded it yet for 9x19.

But is it a correct translation?

I load plenty of S&B in 9mm & 45ACP

i sized up a few and they kept failing the plunk test. Not my first rounds reloaded but the first time brass has failed me that way.

Brass isn’t a philosophical subject to me. Once I decided I didn’t like it I chucked it then continued living this grand life with my wife and children.

Give it time. Give it time.

Hmmmm. I wonder. Is brass philosophical or ideological? I’m at the point where it’s almost metaphysical.

The brass is what I want it to be.

Guess so. I’m the brass. Be the brass. (Unless it’s as cold as a brass monkey.)

A little late, but just for info. I found recent Nosler headstamped brass is stepped and also it appears the flash hole is de-burred! (9mm)

 

[Gone Hiking]

9x17 and 9x18. Also, oddball stuff that is Berdan primed or has that weird internal shelf, which my depriming/resizing die usually finds.

None really..................
If I don't really like brand XXX-----I'll still save it because eventually a member here will say " I really like brand XXX brass"........then off it goes.......

 

[GravelRider]

For 9 mm, as long as it's not Berdan, steel, or aluminum, I reload it. Actually, that goes for all straight-walled pistol cases. I've yet to be able to reload badly enough that the reloaded round is the limiting factor in pistol cartridges.

These are no good
