    Just recently bought 1000 .380 acp off Armslist. Can someone assist me in identifying some of these less common head stamps and rate their quality for reloading? Which, if any, do you consider junk brass? Thank you.

    Incidentally, it would make a nice sticky thread on this forum to identify head stamps along with rating their quality for reloading.
