Freedom Munitions first impressions(308 & 223)
I ordered a some of this ammo since time/space is not available right now for reloading. Ended up getting 168gr A-Max 308 and 55gr V-Max 223 re-manufactured.
Nice packaging for the 308.
4 little boxes with 5 rounds in each.
Went through and checked EVERY single round....not by choice because of this
It was nothing a toothbrush wouldn't take off and gave me time to see what kind of brass was used.
Ended up with the following numbers(all LC brass):
1 - 88
3 - 05
7 - 07
7 - 08 LR
22 - 09
80 - 08 (pictured below)
Here is the worst condition piece I could find besides the regular minor dents.
My thoughts on the 308.... looks good minus the gunk around the neck which wasn't that hard to removed but set off my OCD and curiosity. Will have a range report in the near future.
The 223 was packed in 50rd boxes.
Very pretty and ready to go out of the box.
Brass was a mix of FC, Winchester, Speer, and LC.
I came up with the following numbers from 1 box.
1 - FC 06
1 - FC 223 REM
5 - Winchester 223 REM
Speer
1 - 09
9 - 08
5 - 07
LC
1 - 06
2 -05
12 - 08
13 - 07
