*I* 380 Auto Brass

[Radicalman64]

I have tried loading some 380 Auto Brass and have had some real issues with trying to size it. Does anybody know what the brand is?

not independence is it?

I don't know, but I guess it could be. Is Independence supposed to be a good brand? Thanks

Hi,

I believe *I* is Independence.

Here is my thread on GP from a long time ago about brass types:

I got some of that in .40 a while back and it loaded really good!

I've loaded quite a bit of the "I" headstamp brass in 40 sw and I personally like it. Loading some 9mm of mixed headstamps this evening, I started segregating the Sellior/Beloit brass due to primer pocket issues.(Had to use a hand primer tool to get the primers seated in it) I use a small magnetic led light for inspecting cases and dropped it into the bowl with my 9mm brass. Imagine my surprise when I had a couple of SB cases sticking to it when I pulled it out. They are brass plated and look just like any other brass case, but they are definitely steel with a brass coating. There were other sb cases in the bin that were not steel. I guess I will use a strong magnet in the future to screen the cases to avoid the steel ones. Blitzfike
