This stuff split just sitting in the ammo can. It makes sense that the dissimilar metals corrode and bond to each other. I cant get in my head how that caused the cases to split just sitting in the ammo can. I wonder if Federal uses something in their brass that causes it to be more reactive than other manufacturers? What is even more weird is I have a box of the Federal Gold Medal from the same lot number that was stored in another ammo can. I got it out and it is pristine. Wonder why the handloads cracked and the factory loads did not. I shot the factory loads earlier today. They did not shoot wonderful, but they shot 1.5 minute. Its still a mystery to me.
