I received a batch of the Shellshock 308 Win casings. The company has zero communication skills. I left several messages via email/phone and received no responses. I also received zero shipping info but the brass did arrive after 6 days so not bad but the lack of communication annoyed me.
The brass itself looks terrible. Its filthy unlike the photos they provide on their website where it all looks new. What I received looks like 5 week old nickel range brass. Pretty ugly.
I threw some of it in the stainless media to clean it up. We will see how it turns out. The annealing marks are almost 3/4 of the way down the case length....kinda weird. The 300blk casing I bought previously looked MUCH better.
My only guess is that they coat them in some kinda of oil during packaging. The bag is covered in it.
The interesting part is the H2O capacity. My alpha (unfired) srp brass holds 54.8 grains of water BUT the SS Nas3 holds 57!!! That is a massive difference.
My plan is too load some up tomorrow with my current 308 recipe and see how it goes.
