[QUOTE="Defcon Shooter, post: 3283177, member: 42229"] My experience here in the shop is I have had to remove 2 stuck brass cases in 25 years from 5.56 platforms. Have removed probably close to eighty stuck steel cases including ones where the customer had ruined the barrel with at home removal techniques. Also a few ripped off extractor lips from "mortaring" techniques. Steel also rusts if you store ammo loose in cans as the coating gets damaged. In higher end rifles such as the "E" chambered POF rifles steel is not too often a problem. In lower end DI rifles it's just not worth it to me. A day of shooting ruined by a stuck case is not made up for by cheap price. [/QUOTE]
