They've been saying that about the 10 gauge shells for years. I wish they would, I'd love to have some. I see old ones for sale all the time for a lot less than $7.50 each but I don't know as you could find any primers to work in them.

The ones to get would be the Alcan brand 10 gauge brass, they're a lot more modern, but you just never see those unfortunately.

All the Alcan I have take the old #57 Remington primers that can sometimes be found at gunshows. The Magtech take the large pistol primers. If you can find some of the hammer double brass (out of business) they take a 209 primer. You can usually get the old brass for around $4 each, even the Winchesters (parker are a lot more). I think that most of the old ones take a large pistol primer. I have stayed away from the berdan primed brass because of primer removal and finding berdan primers, which are also found now and then.


Good luck,
