Anyone else come across this Sierra ammo with a hybrid case?

So it took me a bit to find info on it but it’s from a company called “Shell-Shock technologies”

Ammo is from Sierra, case is from Shell-Shock. Odd design, wanted to see if anyone else has come across these.image.jpg

Do NOT try and reload it.

The cases will separate and get stuck in the die....

They sell a special set to reload the shell shock cases, but ONE case will ruin your day if it slips in....

I read that as well, I don’t reload but still a good tip

I have seen these on our range while picking up my brass. Thank you for the update! Much appreciated.
 
I'll buy the brass from you once you've shot it.

They're neat technology. They can withstand more pressure than standard 9MM brass cases and they're also significantly lighter. Atlas Arms is using the NAS3 case for their federally legal AP cartridge -- the Dagny Dagger.

Even though they’re 124gr hollowpoints I don’t plan on shooting them due to their “novelty” but if you have any 9mm hollowpoints I’d be willing to trade.

If/when I do shoot them, I’ll hold onto them for you 100%

It is, the only time I’ve seen another hybrid was for the .277 FURY. I could really see this in a military application to cut down on weight

The bullets are significantly lighter than a normal bullet, you can feel the difference. Also, when you clink them together, they sound much different than normal bullets. I thought I got gipped at first until I researched lol

Let us know if you end up shooting them, wonder if it would cause any feeding issues in some firearms.
