Rocket powered 9mm.  They're pretty rare, I'd sale it to a neckbeard for $15.00.

Yikes, that sort of mistake could be really bad.

You should email remington about it. Seriously. I had a case split from a new box of .223 UMC ammo. I emailed them and told them. They sent me a prepaid fedex label to ship it back. Got a check for $15 a couple weeks later. They said it was a problem with the annealing process.

Don't be surprised to find the occasional  5.45 in a box of 5.56 Brown Bear either.  It's happened more than once.

fortunately the round would not chamber. I had loaded up in the dark before hunting and never thought of inspecting the rounds

I'm OCD on hunting ammo. I role my own. It gets a little out of control.

For factory ammo, a visual inspection and running the ammo through the gun will pick up 90% of possible issues. Scaling and mic'in them will usually get the rest.

You'd probably sell it to.


Buddy of mine put an empty box on ebay and sold it...cost more to ship it then the winning bid.

Definitely contact Remington. I bet you would get a real nasty surprise if you tried to shoot that.

You found one of only five hidden secret Golden Wonka cartridges. Now you get a free tour of the factory.

Tip: Don't touch the river of priming compound.


ETA: I just noticed your post. Great minds think alike.

I shot the one in my avatar (didn't notice while loading it) and it was a quiet "phhh!" sound with lots of smoke.

I was running the shoot house at the Utah State Sniper Match last year, and one of the competitors had a box of RemUMC 9mm where one of the cartridges was dented in at the base, to the point of penetration of the case, and powder spilling out. I still have it. Looks like some of the tooling impacted the cartridge, making it useless or dangerous.  I doubt it would chamber, but if it did, you would blow the mag out probably.

Remington ammo is shit which is a shame because the Core-Lok bullet is one of the best hunting bullets ever made.

I bought some .270 Win ammo at the local sporting good store.  In the middle of the box was a .243 Win round.  First thing the store owner says when I tell him is, of course, "Do you own a .243"? as if I had mixed it up myself.  I did not, in fact, own a .243.

I found a round of .243 in a box of American Eagle .308 once, it was pretty obvious when I opened the box.



I tend to check my ammo now, for exactly things like this and what OP found.

Primed upside down.  Only see that in reloads usually.  Never seen it in factory ammo. QC is supposed to catch that.
