DO NOT use Natec polymer case in HKs with fluted chambers, you will have one HELL of a mess.
Sounds like you've played that game before. I assume the cases get cut and impaled on the flutes and won't extract. Or, even worse, the cases rupture and take the gun along with it. Is that correct?

Rory, How well did this stuff work in an AR. I would be interested in some if it shoots well.

Cerrosafe, and the guns didn't run more than a couple rounds before MAJOR extraction problems... do NOT use in HK's. Works fine in AR's, AK's, AC556's etc.

I would rate the value at just above Bubba's handloads at the gun show. I would not rate it the same as milsurp due the the short lived nature of the company. I've heard good things about it and seen it shot in an m16 w/o trouble.

IIRC, SAR indicated they got a lower rate of fire and velocity with it. If that were true I would suggest you probably wouldn't notice it f/a without a timer. The guy I saw shooting it was rocking & rolling... Had no complaints about it.

Nobody to go after for any trouble with it though.
