I have never seen RORG headstamped 223 before. It is Radway Green brass...good for reloading?
Is it possible for brass to split at the neck on a first loading? I scored the super mega bonanza 223 pickup at my range this morning...I know this sounds stupid but that adds up to about 275 pieces...the most I have EVER seen at my range. Out of those about 15 were split at the neck which I don't understand. 99% of the brass was LC, FC, WCC and you could see they were crimped primers and the crimp had not been removed so I think its fairly safe to assume those were only fired once but there were some Winchesters in the split brass. Is there something that can cause brass to split on the first firing? I inspected all of the other cases and I don't see signs of them being reloaded. Any thoughts or Ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
