    Default 223/5.56 Brass Question

    So I have some AR brass I'm not familiar with, as far as being good for reloading.

    First up is headstamp PSD on top with 2 digit year on bottom. South Korean, 5.56 I presume.

    Second is headstamp A USA on top 223 Rem on bottom. Commercial Ammunition USA I believe.

    Any have any experience with these, good or bad?

    Thanks in advance.

    I've loaded bunches of PSD. I think it's good stuff, comes from PMC ammo. I've had nothing but good loads come out of it.

    Careful with the PSD ones (PMC ammo), some people have reported off-center flash holes causing de-priming issues, and others even after depriming said they required a lot more work than usual to remove the crimp.
    'Unless a law-abiding individual has a firearm for his or her own defense, the police typically arrive after it is too late. With rigor mortis setting in, they mark and bag the evidence, interview bystanders, and draw a chalk outline on the ground' - Judge Benitez , 2019, Duncan v. Becerra.

    Not a fan of anything Armscor.

    Most PSD brass has small flash holes that can be an issue with Dillon dies. And most all of it has crimped primers that can be a deal breaker for some.

    Thanks for all the input so far.

    I guess I get to sort it after all , and then run some test batches to see how they work out for me.
