Well, I finally shot these.

All three combinations fired flawlessly.

The 25 grain loads were a little hot, with the primers being 'outties'. The other two loads looked the same coming out as they did going in, just 80 grains lighter.

Accuracy was equal to the brass rounds I was firing with the identical components.

As far as to 'why?'.

If you are as fanatical about brass as I am, it bugs the crap out of me to lose one. If I am shooting/hunting where I may lose many of them, they make a good choice. Shoot them and leave them.

I could tell no difference between the brass loads and the steel ones from the back end.
