450 Bushmaster cases
I recently saw a add for Hornady 450 Bushmaster ammo. The add claims the "Custom" ammo can be reloaded but the "Black" can not be reloaded.
Anyone have any thoughts about this? I have reloaded a few "Black" cases but have not fired them yet. No difference I can see between the two. I have several boxes of thee once fired "Black" I would like to use for reloading. |

Hornady lists "Black" brand ammo. No mention of it not being reloadable.
Sounds like whoever the seller is, who must be properly licenced to sell reloads, may be confused.

I've reloaded and fired hundreds of Hornady cases sold under the "black" line of ammo, mostly grendel. Like you I couldn't tell any difference and neither did the rifle.

Thanks Guys! I couldn't see any different in reloading between the two cases either.
Hornady techs says there is no difference in the loads. I see the blacks are dirtier after firing them. Has to be a different powder. |
