FAQs

Are these real fired casings or replicas? These are genuine once-fired 308 WIN / 7.62x51 steel casings, recovered and inspected after real firing — not replicas or reproductions.

Will the headstamps all match? No — this is a mixed lot, so headstamps and exact manufacturer markings vary piece to piece. Pictures show typical quality and condition.

Are these safe to handle and ship? Yes. Every casing is spent and inert, with no propellant or live primer. They're not a sterile container and aren't intended for food service.

Will steel casings rust over time? Steel casings can develop light surface oxidation if exposed to moisture, unlike brass. For jewelry or long-term display, a light clear coat or dry storage helps keep the finish looking its best.

Can I request a specific quantity or different caliber? Yes — special requests for gauge or quantity are welcome; just reach out before ordering.
