Can this replace brass' 150 year reign?

Not for me the cases require different type dies and a 9mm die set costs $99.99 U.S. dollars.

Below their 9mm sizing and flaring dies
Below pulling bullets overstresses the crimp, making cases unreloadable, the upper section of the case pulled away from the base.

Was actually thinking the same...a '2 piece' case always runs a risk of separating

Special primers??? That looks like a large flash hole.

Aren't some big artillery shells made this way?
Looks like a solution to a problem no one is aware of to me....

I remember when I first started reloading 30 years ago, and how I would search for all my spent casings back then, never again.
not worth restocking new casings and other stuff, that makes my guns go bang already. Waste of time reinventing the wheel, unless it saves me even more to reload.

I've got a few friends using Shellshock for their loading. Robin Sebo uses it exclusively for the CZ team, purchased a million cases and loads them for all their practice and match ammo. He doesn't pick em up either. They are a lot cheaper than new brass is, so based on his needs it works. Paul in Australia uses them as well, and likes the fact that he can pick them up with a magnet, versus having to scramble around to pick them up. His reject rate is pretty low and has reloaded them many times with no issues. If I had to buy my cases I might consider these myself.
