    Default .45colt brass

    i have some once fired .45colt brass from magtech and remington lead cowboy loads, would these be ok to to reload powder like tite group with jacketed bullets? i'm just wondering if the brass is any weaker for cowboy loads since i read in my manual not to use brass that's been loaded with blackpowder. thanks.
    Go head, skin it. Skin that smoke wagon and see what happens.

    smoke-wagon,

    what deafsmithco said. it would be a legal and logistical nightmare to have brass with different physical characteristics for lesser loads.
