Any brass is good these days.

Port for sure. Is it berdan or boxer primed? Never seen 5.56 FNM, but my 7.62 and 303 FNM are all berdan primed. You can reload them, as large rifle berdan is getting easy to find, but small rifle berdan is made out of unobtanium.

these are not designated with 5.56 or 223 but they have been fired in an AR 5.56. They are not berdan primers, but they are crimped. I am just curious about the quality of the brass.
