ID ..45 Brass

I have about 800 .45 auto brass cases with the case head marked: .45 auto CBC. Can anyone tell me the manufacturer? I am not familiar with this ammo maker and am worried that it may be the ammo from the manufacturers you guys have warned people not to use. Thanx.

According to this web page:

http://cartridgecollectors.org/heads...des_bottom.htm

It is:

CBC Companhia Brasileira de Cartuchos, Avenida Industrial No 3330, Santo Andre, Estado de Sâo Paulo, Brazil (ca'1997: Av Humberto de Compos 3220, 09400 000 Ribeirao Pires SP, Brazil)

I couldn't tell you if it's any good or not though...sorry.

my experience with CBC in 45 seems to be ok, I have found a few at the range. 9mm is a different story it is absolute junk.

All the Magtech .454 ammo I’ve bought has come loaded in CBC brass, but that’s the extent of my knowledge of it.

Magtech. I have not had any problem loading this brass in .45acp or .40 S&W.
