Monarch Brass?
« on: April 10, 2011, 06:52:59 AM »
A friend gave me 5 boxes of once fired Monarch .243 brass.  Have any of you had a problem with it?

If it's the Monarch brand I'm thinking about the brass case ammo comes in a Red and Gold box with the Black Lyon crest on it,there has also been some produced in Green boxes as well.   It's made in Serbia by Prvi Partizan and is excellent brass. 

Monarch is and offshoot of one of the Russian ammo mfg. that they also mfg. in Russia but it will be steel case or brass plated steel cases and berdan primed.

This may be the stuff you have.
