Anyone shooting Tulammo. 223. Steel case 55 grain FMJ. Says it's boxer primed, non corrosive. Is this stuff reloadable?

I could be wrong, but I don't think steel cased is resizeable?

Tula does resize. Keep in mind steel does not stretch much so there is not much to resize. I reload the Tula's one time and give them to my son with the instructions not to bring the cases back. Yes, it's boxer primed. kwg

interesting. I've never read it. Must be as useful as reloading FC cases, one shot and you are done.
Seemed like steel in a steel die would be iffy

If they made stronger dies with stronger different presses for leverage, steel could be resized for reloading. It might come to that as brass gets more expensive. I've often wondered why aircraft aluminimum for rimfire ammo wasn't used to save brass. I know they use aluminum for 38 speciall and 44 special size loads with shotshells and light loads. Lots of ways to cut costs. If steel cases could be reloaded it would cut costs way down on ammo and reloading.

yes, tulammo .223 is boxer primed and is re-loadable but as was already mentioned, I would only load it once
Pretty much all of their pistol ammo is Berdan primed....SUCKS

Thanks everyone. I managed to pick up 2500 rounds of this at a very good price.

Hmm... Never thought about that die setting in my stash of dies... have to check into how carbide reacts with steel.
