I got some of this in at work today and thought I would post some pictures. It comes in 900 round cases. I haven't shot any since I just unloaded the pallet today. It will be after the holidays before I get to the range to shoot any of this. I will I am still waiting on the duty ammo to arrive. I'll get some pictures of that up when they arrive. David

Interesting tip design. Did you weigh the charge?
Thanks for posting. |

No, I don't have anything to weigh it with. I am nowhere near as technical as you guys. Just a trigger puller. David

Yes from what I read the primer is the part that is lead free. I wasn't sure so that is why I pulled a round. It is definately a lead core round. David

Can you please confirm whether the round is completely non-magnetic?
