Hey guys I picked up a 200 round box of federal 50 gr. hollow point at Wal-Mart for the AR 15 a while back and started to work up a load with some of the once fired brass for it the other day, when I tryed to prime it I noticed that the primer holes are offset or egg shaped causing the primer not to seat well.
They are stamped LC 07 and have a green sealant own the outside of the primer.
Has anyone else tryed to reload this brass and can they be reloaded saftey,or are they junk.
 
KYFuzzyFace, I picked up about 1,000 rounds of it a few years ago when it was selling for $52 per 200rds...

I bought a RCBS swagger die set and it works well...By the same token, if I lose a few cases during a shoot, it doesn't bother me as much as if I lose my Winchester or Remington brass...but once I get the primer pocket opened back up, it loads well and shoots well..
