[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1078320, member: 2736"] It's not a dumb question at all. I use a lot of the military ammo and it is easy to tell by the crimp and primer seal. Sizing marks are another way to tell if it has been loaded. If you see the shooter fire it and he has the new box it came from that's another way. "BUT" if you are not sure, It can be a gamble. I see the term range brass and cringe because it may have 10 firings in different chambers and simply be polished/tumbled to make it look good. My advice is to stay away from all brass that you don't know it's origin and the number of firings. nothing is saved ,when you have a case head separation or split case that can damage your chamber or render the rifle useless during a hunt. Brass Is hard to find sometimes but worth the effort instead of taking a chance with used brass that you don't know about. Just My opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
