      Looks like factory work. Having worked in manufacturing, the subject of what you're making is cool for a while. Before long, you start seeing ammo in your dreams. Thousands and thousands of little brass tubes. Then, eventually, your soul erodes. Then you end up kind of wishing you were doing something else.
      Stick to a decent well paying job, and make enough to buy the reloading equipment on the side as a hobby. That way you get all the fun and enjoyment without the soul suck. Best way to ruin a hobby you love is to do it as a job.

NO GUESSWORK, no flipping blocks, full 8 point laser inspection down to a millionth of an inch. Flawless, insanely quick production.

      The short answer is what Mike D said. There check for cracks will kick out practically all defective cases. As for brass that has been fired multiple times, that would probably be only a small portion of brass being sold by ranges. Government agencies selling off once fired brass would be form new manufactured ammo. If case this is a high concern for you, stick to new manufactured.

    • @onemoremisfit
      @onemoremisfit 4 года назад +1

      Handgun calibers tolerate multiple firings without too much risk, but rifle brass stretches a lot more, so the rifle brass would need to be once-fired only to be trusted for reloading on a mass scale.

    imagine a 9 mil minigun at the end of that conveyor nomming all that delicious brass...

    Since this is salvaged brass does this mean that one box may contain bullets with different manufacturers' headstamps? This shouldn't make a difference but I know shooters who are really finicky about staying devoted to one or two manufacturers. Other than that this is a pretty cool process.

    Someone gifted me some peak 9mm htps and they’re actually pretty good. Not the best projectile for home defense but if you want to train with htp they’re great and not much more than new Winchester fmj
