So if you buy it to shoot, and it's brass, then go for it, even range brass, my plinking brass is every headstamp I can find. I only sort to one decent brand/headstamp if I'm loading up a bunch for a match, but otherwise, I just load em and shoot them, and have had more fun with my reloads.
Your the quality control, and consistant loads are the name of the game.
I shoot quite a bit of .308 and 30.06 also, and attempt to get all my brass back, some of the folks even bring them to me from other lanes, what a neat hobby. I also pickup anything good from the dozens of shooting lanes during the shooting breaks after asking if the shooters are keeping their brass, more of them don't keep it, my gain.
I also have enough of the rifle stuff, and quite often find younger folks who are courious about the M1 Garand and M1A. So I'll sometimes let them blast away some also, all part of the fun.
