Looking forward to the second test. Well done Sir.

🇦🇺😎👍I’ve reloaded those aluminium cases. I was told that was a big NO NO but I proceeded anyway and had great results….I love ❤ the PO9….I love ❤ snow….the .308 is my friend as well😉👍….great video Big John

Aluminum is cheaper than brass but aluminum expands more in the chamber than brass while brass expands more than steel. If the pistol will shoot aluminum then it will shoot anything because there is a higher probability of stuck cases and extraction problems with aluminum chamber expansion. Steel case is dirtier because it does not expand as much as brass and leaves a gap between the case and the chamber wall where carbon fouling blow back can accumulate and foul a chamber much quicker. So guns need to be cleaned more often if using steel case or chamber fouling will cause stuck cases and extraction and chamber feeding problems.

The only non reloadable ammo I buy, is x39, 54r and 22lr. everything else I reload. This brings cost way down. As a Canadian my components cost more, even so my costs are under 200 a thousand.

Now this is 8 mm Mauser man at his best. I've shot a couple thousand rounds of the aluminum and a whole bunch of the brass through my MP5. This stuff has been available online cheap for the last year at least. Blindfolded I couldn't tell the difference when shooting it.... But then I wouldn't hit anything either.... So I generally don't shoot blindfolded. The aluminum has two major advantages: it's noticeably lighter and that's important if you're on an electric off-road motorcycle or backpacking..... And it's not reloadable because I really don't enjoy at my age bending over a hundred times to pick up brass which I'll probably never reload anyway.... I just don't have the time. It's also typically a little bit cheaper for the aluminum than the brass. I've never had the case mouth splitting and exploding gun curse that I've read about but that doesn't mean it won't happen to somebody else. Don't forget to give us the overall cartridge weights on part two because that can be very important... ammo is heavy. Thank you Mr 8mm Mauser man. 😁

Awesome…the small difference in powder weight would probably explain most of the speed difference imo, not sure if there is a difference in metal strength between brass and aluminum…would think maybe they load alum to slightly lower pressure for safety reason can also be since alum ammo is less expensive they’re saving money…or both…

I reload both with no problems so far

Its too early to go to bed :) we got some reloading to do sir

Was this video about how many problems you had, no ammo and stuff like that??

Lol, entertaining and informative ❓ question mark
