    Factory reloads!

    What are you thoughts on factory reloads that are Non Corrosive, Boxer Primed, Brass Case, Reloadable, Made in the U.S.A?
    I have to find the website again but they are selling 1k for $302 shipped.
    I wouldn't think they would be any problems. I forgot to mention the caliber LOL! .223

    I would imagine the caliber and bullet wight would have a lot to do with the price.

      I don't buy reloads. Bad JuJu IMO.

      Re-manufactured yes, ONLY Black Hills.

        I'ved used BVAC 38SP with no problems at all. They had a mix of brass and nickel cases. All went bang. Powder seemed a bit dirty. I've reloaded the cases several times since. If you need brass and can't find empties to buy go with these - they are fairly inexpensice compared to new loaded ammunition.

          I suspect the main difference between "factory reloads" and remanufactored is their advertising budget.
          In the event of a mishap a company with deeper pockets may be best.

              Has anyone bought a factory reload for a 223?
              I plan on calling them on monday, is there any particular questions I should ask about factory reloads?

                  Yes, they are fine. Outdoormarksman buys from MiWall, MiWall buys from all kinds of different manufacturers.

                  Factory reloads = blems/seconds/overstock/returns
                  Reloads = Reloads

                  Generally speaking.

                    Outdoor Marksman IS Miwall.

                    Ammo that is "remanufactured" can be made from new components that were pulled apart without ever having been fired while "reloads" the cases have been previously fired.
                    There's no guarantee that "remanufactured" ammo is from new components though.
                    Most of the time, "remanufactured" ammo is simply "reloaded" ammo.
                    Adding the word "factory" to the name is purely marketing spin.

                        it seems like it's 50-50. Some people had bad experiences and some had good ones. I've tried calling the company but no one answers.

                            Cleaned primer pockets for one, and a higher level of Quality Control.

                            I have NEVER had a Dud or Squib with Black Hills ammo, I can't say the same for
                            the folks who sell Reloads.

                              I've shot BH blue box (re-man) and Milwall (reload), both go down the barrel just fine.
