Herter's 38 Special 158gr

It would be a public service to shooters on your part if you would take this evidence back to Cabelas, get in touch with the store manager [not some clerk], and strongly recommend to them that they should take this ammo off their shelves and completely out of the store.

After that move, they wouldn't want to knowingly sell a known dangerous product to the public.

Some of the other yet-unsold brass might be even more brittle.   And more dangerous.

+1 on Semper Fi Guy....     Get Cabela's involved - NOW !! 

I would not want to be in possession of this knowledge and not try to prevent someone else from having a similar or worse experience..

Be sure to explain to them that your experience did not reflect a gun or cylinder failure as you noted multiple failures in one loading.

SFG just got all kinds of oodles of brownie points from probably most of the people of this forum, and from those he hasn't met yet. I know he just got a bunch from me :3  ... speaking of which, I think there's a thread of his that needs updating... sifting through forum time...

unfy:
I've saved the pictures of the brass (but not the branding).

d1sclaimer: do you mind if I possibly use the pics elsewhere as examples of what to look out for with bad brass etc ?

SemperFiGuy:
UNFY........

Guess we won't be reloading any of that brass.
