Stainless steel casings? Wowser.

It surprised me too. They do seem to be using regular gilding metal
bullets. I assume the casings are a 304 type of stainless since they
imply they are attracted to a magnet roller. I wonder how they affect
extractors and other case handling components of semi auto guns.

Magnetic attraction cuts them out of my firing range.


You might have to educate the range officer that the cases are
magnetic but not the bullets.


Nope. Ain't gonna happen. 50 rounds at WalMart is about $10.


You're paying 20 cents a round. If you buy 1000 rounds, you'd pay 21 cents, then only 14 cents a round when you return the casings for reloading. It's only a penny or two more per round at the 500 quantity level.
