Reusing brass from bulk ammo
Is the brass from bulk bullets good enough to reload? I imagine that much of it will be from different lots. I thought about buying some for my .308 but I want to be able to use the brass. It may be better to spend the same money and buy brass, powder and bullets. What do you guys think?

RE: Reusing brass from bulk ammo
WThunter,
If you are loading it just for casual shooting or practice round it will be fine. If you are going to use it for serious shooting then separate it into brand and headstamp, prepare it and then weigh it out keeping those that fall into the mid 75-80% range in each group. Keep them segregated after all that work!
