Any one tried this bulk ammo from Reloaders? Is the brass ok to reload with? and how does it shoot?

Any one tried this bulk ammo from Reloaders? Is the brass ok to reload with? and how does it shoot?
I've only shot BVAC .308 150gn FMJs.
But they tend to use fired once fired ex mil surp brass with primer crip removed (usually Lake City, with the odd others mixed in).
Reloaded to make up this ammo.
But its weight sorted to a reasonable range (unlike some new factory brass).
Like any ammo, try different brands to find somehting your rifle likes.
Thanks Dogmatix - I ended up finding some brass Hornady training ammo at my local so going with that instead - cheers for the info
dont know if my chrony is playn up testd some 223 55 gr got 2800 , anyone else chronyd them?
How long is your barrel??
18 "
Seems awfully slow for an 18" barrel
thats what i thought , put some rounds out to 300 today clicks to be spot on workd out to be about same speed 2800 ish , seems very slow ill hav nother mess around later in the week maybe i fuckd up ,starting fresh on another day might help
I'm getting 2800fps out of a 16" M4 upper with Hornady white box training ammo, if anybody cares. I'm keen to try some BVAC.
be interesting to see if bvac is same speed in yours keep me updated
I don't have my own chrony, was using dogmatix's, it's on the to buy list
bvac web site quote 2900 as mv doesnt quote test barrel lenght
I'll get some and put it through my 16" mid length and chrony it.
try cfe223 use in a wyndham 20 inch groups well and has soft recoil used under maximumoff reloader manual. Try .2 grain changes rate the powder over Benchmark2 that have been using. Have tried in my 22-250 and cloverleafs at 100meters again soft recoil . Tried in a guys BRNO 223 and really good groups as well so powder is well designed.
