I have a bunch of different brass that i bought from The Lovemaster (by the way all of the brass i was very pleased with the condition) but there are some head stamps that i don't recognize, and they are as follows......

-IK 5.56x45
-TZZ (then there are various numbers on the headstamp)
-PMP
-CBC
-NNY
-CJ
-NPA 5.56x45
-TW
-BHA MATCH

I also wanted to know which are good brass and which are not so great.
Thanks,
Bones
