    All of us can speculate what we think it is, but you wont know for sure until you load some up and shot them.

        I guess I will find out soon enough. I prime off press and I just realized I primed 154 WWB brass. As I don't want to waste the primers, I will load them up and see what happens. I will start with 10 to 20 to see what happens. At least then I will know if I can keep using them or if I need to start sorting head stamps......

            I just got into reloading and started depriming about 1500 once fired 9mm brass, mostly WWB.
            Never had a problem with it in my Beretta 92F. Works fine in my Mp5 too

              win bulk ammo

              I have been shooting win bulk white box ammo for 15 plus years, never had a problem.
              I also reloaded all the brass several times over, no problems.
              Used in all kinds of pistols SA 1911-9mm, SA XD, CZ75, Ruger P89, and Sigs.

                  Thanks for the responses. Maybe I got a bad batch as I have had no luck with it, although it was all from the same 100'round box. Maybe it was an isolated batch. I will reload a few of the ones I have primed and give them a go. I didn't want to go any further until I am sure they are GTG as I have about 400 pieces of brass from various matches. As many of you know you don't always get your exact brass back, but rather a mix at the end of the match.
                  Just for transparency I shoot a Smith M&P 9 and a RIA 1911 chambered in 9mm. I had issues in both firearms and they are proven with other types of ammo.

                    9mm WWB is what my department has been using for the last 10+ years. I also reload it with zero problems.

                    That was with Browning, Beretta, Glock and S&W models so I am thinking you have an issue with your 9mm.

                      Same here. And I have no issues reloading WWB brass. Even though I reload, I ran my share of WWB factory ammo through 1911s, Berettas and Glocks. Never had any problems. One thing though. This was factory ammo made about 4 to 5 years ago..

                        Never had a problem with WWB. The brass reloads just fine over here.

                          Never had a problem with Winchester brass. That's my favorit brass next to TZZ.

                            I buy strictly Winchester 9MM once fired brass to load 9mm. Never had an issue with a bad case and no feed or ejection issues at all in my loaded ammo. Shot in multiple Glocks and a 9mm carbine. Best brass for 9MM loading in my opinion. I have reloaded other brands. I check the case length but have never found one too short or too long and have never trimmed them.

                              WWB runs longer than other brass, but I don't seperate brass when reloading practice ammo and it still runs fine in my XD.
