    Any I have aquired was berdan primed.

    ...and Berdan primed brass can be reloaded. It takes a little more tooling, one more step, and a different primer.

    But I've never seen berdan primers for sale around here or most anywhere else.

    I have about a hundred Danish M2 Ball cases... all Berdan. Since I have thousands of US and Greek Ball cases that are Boxer, I have no use for the Berdan cases... although I did use a dozen to make dummy practice rounds!

    Thanks guys, thought I had 400 rounds of good for something brass, I will save it if any body else has a use for them.
