      Yea, that ammo is completely unsafe.


      I’ll take it off your hands fro you and dispose of it properly.


      And just because I’m a nice guy, I’ll do it free of charge.

        Not all brass is created equal. Compare the LC to the Lapua in pic below, both new and unfired cases sat in their boxes on the same shelf in my garage for over ten years until I opened them a few months ago.

          1) "it's annealing, it's perfectly fine, and desired." [in quotes because that seems to be the standard way it's answered]
          2) looks like de-linked ammo, hence the case scratches.

          If the primer crimp is intact, then you know they're not reloads.

            Even Lapua is capable of looking sh**ty right out of the box

              What he said. ^^^^^^

              Throw it in your tumbler for an hour or two and you will have shiny new brass. Or shoot it as is.

                Thanks for the feedback, it is too ugly for me to shoot.

                I just gave it all away to 556, all 1000 rounds.

                  If it bothers you, you are welcome to come over and run it through my tumbler a bit. It will look good as new and shoot exactly the same.


                  I actually only shoot ammo I load with the exception of mislurp rifles.

                      How does it shoot?
                      Does it group well?
                      Is it jamming constantly?
