There have been a lot of 223 brass threads lately but I have another, yesterday I got a deal on a case of PMC 223 ammo. I know it is made in Korea but I have never shot PMC ammo or brass before. I know the brass has got to be worth saving but how good is it ????????????? I'm hoping better than late model Winchester

I've loaded quite a bit of PMC with no issues. It's one of my load and lose headstamps though so I can't speak to long term durability over about three reloads.

I end up with a lot of it as range pick up brass around here..
I put my brass in lots of 10 or 20, and keep a load history on a 3 x 5 card...
I've got batches that have been loaded 40 plus times...by me...
Normally Blue Dot or Steel loads, pressures in the 45,000 CUP range..
Its good quality brass, on par or better than Remington in my book...

I've used PMC in .223, .308 and .30-06; IME it's as good or better than any other mass-produced brass.

Usable but watch for off-center flash holes.
