Nickel reacts with most gun cleaning compounds. Anyone who has used hoppes #9 on a nickel plated gun and ruined it can tell you that.

I’ll wait till it’s been around a while. In the mean time I have enough Brass squirreled away to keep me in ammo for the rest of my life.

Definitely need some extended testing to see how this shakes out. For now, brass is just fine.

Exactly. Interesting but not something that I need. Have buckets of brass that I’ve never sorted.
