.357 Max Nickel Plated
« on: February 09, 2012, 03:07:40 PM »
I have recently acquired 100 once fired nickel plated .357 Max cartridges. IHMSA headstamp. Anyone know anything about them?

If it is like other IHMSA headstamp brass then I suspect it is federal brass.  They ran a bunch of brass back in the day for IHMSA in various calibers. Here is an old post.  I have seen some one time before at a gun show and didn't grab them.  Wish I had.

Hmmm. That's interesting, the guy I bought it from threw them in with 170 new cases because he'd miscounted and listed it as 200 on Gunbroker.
