What's the deal with Swiss Arms rifles and brass?

The issue here has me a little confused. Surely no one is suggesting that "producing brass optimized for reloading" is a serious criterion for owning/purchasing a particular model of firearm?

If they are then let me suggest that something in a bolt action would be more suitable.

Perhaps not exactly the way you phrased it, but if there were a firearm which rendered the brass useless for reloading after firing, I wouldn't own one.

Most especially a semi-auto... they're far to prone to consuming ammo like Wendy at a buffet in my hands!

Yeah, majorly overstated. I don't even know why people bring it up. If you load hot than the brass gets more banged up, but normally it is negligible.

Got some XM855 (green tips) at a gun show. Its packed loose and I believe it failed QC so you have to inspect each round, so far I've found about a half dozen that are questionable.

Where are you getting Lake City ammo?

Well, since most of the firearms out there would produce brass which lies somewhere between my "optimized" for reloading and your "useless" for reloading there may be hope that the reladers and shters of the world can yet get along .

Mine tossed the brass at 2 o-clock high (really far)and mangled it in the process
