I was given a gallon-sized ziplock bag of .303 Brit brass. (probably 300+ cases)
I don't have a .303 any more, so I might get rid of this brass.
It's headstamped " D\Z 1942, 1943, 1944"
There's also some "WRA 1943 and 1944" in the bag.
Is this brass safe to reload? It's all once fired and has crimped primers.
If it is, I'll probably be listing it to give away. I don't want anyone hurt loading bad brass that I supplied.

Thanks in advance.

IMHO, yes, very reloadable. Just be sure that there are NO Berdan primed cases, before recapping. Then clean the primer pocket well, use whatever method to clean the brass, washing, soaking etc. dry it and if necessary tumble. Be sure to full length resize the first time time. Segregate into same head stamp batches, and keep notes.
 
If you are giving stuff away Clint I offer to give that Stainless #1 in 45-70 of yours a good home ........... ;)


Nice try, Chuckles.
It's only got 19 rounds through it and hasn't pi$$ed me off yet.
Keep trying though.
I might let you shoot it at Haggisfest if you wash your hands first!
