    Mixed brass and what's worth reloading

    I recently aquired a lot of mixed 223 brass with lots of different headstanps. Some headstanps I recognize and some that I don't. The majority are federal or lake city, but I have found quite a few PMC, Remington and Winchester as well.

    My question is what brass will be the best quality for reloading?

    For plinking, all of those are fine brands to reload. Some would say separate the LC from the commercial stuff.
    If you want to get anal, you can sort them by stamp, then sort by weight of each piece...

      Save the Lake City for matches/precision and use the commercial for practice.

          Find the berdan primered ones. Ones I had came with a numerical headstamp, just numbers, no name.
