A-MERC Brass troubles.
Is anybody else having trouble with loading A-MERC brass?? I am loading it in 45 acp and about 1 out of 5 will not run through the gauge. I have ajusted the crimpimg die several times and it makes no difference. Up till I fine out more I am giving up on this brand. I use a lot of range brass and that's why I run into some bad deals.:confused:

I think when you expand them to much there's no way to crimp them enough to chamber.
I used mine for woods loads, and all the cases i've picked up since has went in the scrpa bucket
Hey i sold my 5gal bucket in tulsa at borgs, got $57. it weighed 50lbs they took off 2 1/2 lbs for the bucket. They are paying $1.20

Good Answer.
Thanks Toney. I guess I'll get me a bucket. I get a lot of these down at the range. I know one thing I am done trying to reload them.:-D

The best place for Amerc brass is in the re-cycle bin. I wouldn't take the time to reload it so I could go to the range to lose it.
Converting it to a six pack makes sense to me. Trying to deal with the stuff will drive you to a six pack!
Take Care

Too the Bucket..
:) Thanks Guys. I am going to do as y'all said, now where's that bucket?

Greetings All, where does this stuff, Amerc, come from? I picked up a couple of hundred 9MM cases a few years ago and when I tried to reload them the cases swelled in the middle when seating the bullet...they were so soft. Some of our local IDPA shooters love them and say they have not had many problems with Amerc brass:shock: . IMHO it's crap. Safe reloading, Bisley

Junk Brass
Well Mr.Blackhawk I am like you. I don't know where it came from, but they can have it back.:twisted: I would say it's one of them inport deals with Red China. I got mind in a bunch of brass that my son in law brought me. As soon as I picked up a case I knew something was rotten. The guys here kept me on the stright and narrow.:-D

Hi Baldy and the rest of you.
I made the mistake of loading up a few of em in M-1 carbine & they all split. My son pointed it out as we were picking up the brass. Every one split right up the middle and every one I have left is now in recycle bin. Glad there weren't many.
Appears to be very brittle.
