Don,

Not bad general advice, as mixed range brass is an gamble at best.

I would try to use brass I have fired myself, all of the same head stamp, all of which I knew how they had been loaded.

I have, many times in the past, purchased once fired WCC military brass (crimped and sealed primer pockets) and have been very pleased with its performance in my Lugers (excellent accuracy, perfect function).

Know your components, gentlemen!


Respectfully,


Sieger
