What is "once fired" brass?
Once Fired
Re-manufactured brass can be categorized into one of three ways: range brass, once fired brass, and bulk brass. All seasoned reloaders know that the key to purchasing reconditioned brass is to get ‘Once- Fired.
‘Once-Fired’ brass ensures that the brass has not been ‘work-hardened’ or near stress failure over the course of multiple reloading's under unknown conditions. ‘Once Fired’ brass from a reputable seller guarantees the cartridge case has been discharged through a firearm once in its product life.
Fire-forming
In firearms, fire-forming refers to the process of thermo-mechanically reshaping a metallic cartridge case to optimally fit a new chamber by firing it within that chamber. The pressure exerted from the discharge expands the brass to fit the contours of the chamber. This creates improved concentricity of the mouth of the case to the bore, as well as precise head-spacing. Fire-formed brass (once fired) is optimal for use for reloading.
