When it impacts a hard surface, it ignites a bright flash, a bang and a puff of smoke. Traces with Bright Red Daylight trace to the target. We get our brass from a well renowned American manufacturer that specializes in large bore and ELR shooting. We process everything in house to bring the brass back to like new conditions. We wash all of our 50 Cal brass through a wet wash process to clean inside and out of the casing. The brass then goes through a hydraulic resizer, reshaping and de-priming the brass and getting it back to proper specifications. From there we rewash the brass and then trim the cases to the appropriate length for head spacing. We then inspect every case by hand for internal separation and prime. From there we have one of our team members hand-load every round and inspect for defects before they are finally packaged for you. Some projectiles will be lacking the painted tip. This is because we receive these rounds directly from the military as-is. This will NOT affect accuracy or function of the rounds. This line of ammunition is 100% American made. Due to the high temperature produced by the tracer / incendiary material, the risk of fire is increased. Be aware of your target and background to maintain a safe shooting environment. We will not be liable for any damages occurred from use of our ammunition.
