Hello Reloading forum.  I have been thinking about geting into reloading but don't quite yet have the funds or time to do it.  I have started to save all the 223 brass I fire.  My question is when I buy factory ammo should I buy one brand over another.  example XYZ brass is bad and not worth reloading but ABC is good stuff to reload.  Most of what I have been shooting is Privi Partizan.  Thanks for the help.

The only brass I would stay away from are the ones marked FC, read rear:

I myself have never had a problem with Federal brass.  It has a shorter life span than most others but if you carefully inspect your brass both inside and out you won't have a problem.  I average 5-6 loads on my Federal brass.

Your good with Win, LC, Privi, Rem, and many other including (IMO) Fed.  I believe the Fed brass in the past 2 years is GTG.
