I went to the range today and cleaned up quite a bit of (other people's) pistol brass. When I got home I started to separate out the steel, Berdan primed stuff and ran a magnet over it. I was VERY surprised, to say the least, to see a bunch of "brass" hanging off the magnet! Turns out there were 31 rounds of this stuff in this batch. It has the appearance of brass both inside and out and is Boxer primed. All of it is head stamped GROM 9x19 PL.
I assumed it was brass plated steel but I am unfamiliar with such a product. I deprimed and resized several cases to see how much force was needed and I was again surprised when it sized with about the same effort as a brass case.
Anybody know anything about this stuff? I can't find anything useful online and I certainly don't need to mix it in with regular brass cases.
