I am wondering has anyone ever reloaded Bimetal Casing Zinc Plated Wax Like Coated shells.. I staring at thousands of thousands of Shells un rusted sitting there for months and months.. yes its funny primers but that fien I have access to them
 
it has been done, but there is a bit of an art to it, its harder then hell on your dies and in the long run its okay as a last resort but do yourself a favor and stick to brass cases..........
 
just wondering what to do with it we been filling our range full of these cases and we don;t have a metal recycler here at all in multiple calibres as well mixed in with rusted cheap copper washed stuff which rusts over night
 
I guess I will bring some 45 gallon drums out there this spring and collect it for storage and seperate the brass thats out there as well ... its not Like I can find the bullets in canada anywhere in FMJ anyways actually in stock
 
well I took a drill and a special punch takes me about 5 seconds to remove primer and drill same size Primer Hole hmmmm still waiting on powder shipment to see how well it works
 
well you said you drilled a hole in the berdan caseing. good idea for reloading next time. however, the berdan system needs that piece inside to use as the anvil to set off the primmer when struck. who knows it may work without it ,it may not. just food for thought if you intend on using berdan primers again
